Question coolant level help

hi i need a little help with my baby blade.
4 months ago i changed my coolant. then yesterday i checked my coolant level when the engine was cold. the level hasn't changed in the coolant reservoir. so there was no issue at the reservoir side. but then i opened the radiator cap and checked the level. the level has dropped a bit. the level could be seen through the radiator cap opening. it was at the bottom of the radiator filler neck (a picture attached below). i have no visible external leaks. no smoke from the exhaust too.
anyway i put some coolant there to fill it up. so is this something to worry about? bike runs fine no heat problem at all. but as i recall, before i noticed this the coolant level was at the top of the filler neck every time i opened and checked it. this is the first time i noticed this kind of level drop. thank you

That's about as full as it gets. Don't worry about it.

There could also have been a little air left in the system from when you changed the coolant.
