    It just appears that he is taking a look around, also fondly referred to as "periscoping".
    If he remains staring straight up into the air, or in the pictured position for extended peiods of time, then that would be something to worry about. If he is just taking a look around, surveying his surroundings perhaps for potential prey, there lies no concern.

    One of my first bps would for some reason get on the hygrometer and stay there for hours instead of going on the ground or its hide. Animals are funny that way but youll see theres alot more stuff they do when youre not really looking.

    My normal male is constantly looking around like this and rarely hides.
