Diddy takes a call at his Miami mansion
Diddy was pictured taking a phone call as he strode outside his Miami mansion on Tuesday .
The music executive, 54, had a chat along the dock of his Star Island property with his cell phone in hand and headset in place.
It comes after federal agents raided his estates in Miami and Los Angeles last month amid a sex trafficking investigation.
At times, Diddy appeared tense during the phone conversation.
He strode down the dock in a navy polo shirt, shorts, and chunky trainers. His look was finished off with a matching hat.

Federal agents last month raided rapper Sean 'Diddy' Combs's homes in Miami and Los Angeles in connection to an ongoing sex-trafficking investigation.
Sources told ABC News that two of Diddy's sons were detained then released without charges. TMZ identified them as Justin and Christian 'King' Combs.
Diddy was not present during the raids, and was seen pacing around Miami airport shortly after.
Combs' lawyer Aaron Dyer has slammed how the situation was handled, saying a day after the raids: 'Yesterday, there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr Combs' residences.
'There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated.
'Mr Combs was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities. Despite media speculation, neither Mr Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way.'
The raids came after the Harlem-born hip-hop star was hit with a slew of lawsuits alleging sexual assault, rape, and other crimes after he settled his ex-girlfriend Cassie's similar lawsuit in November.
'Enough is enough. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation, and my legacy,' Diddy wrote December 6 in his only statement on the matter.

'Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family, and for the truth.'
The suit alleged he controlled and abused Cassie for over a decade - as well as plying her with drugs, beating her, and forcing her to have sex with male prostitutes while he watched and recorded.
Cassie and multiple other women who have sued him for sexual assault in recent months are reportedly cooperating with federal investigators as an alleged sex trafficking probe involving the hip hop mogul heats up.
Cassie has been working with investigators for 'several weeks,' sources with direct knowledge told TMZ earlier this month.
The timing means that the 37-year-old singer may have even been working with feds in the run-up to the dual Homeland Security raids on the rapper-turned-executive's Los Angeles and Miami mansions.
Sources with knowledge of the investigation said that Cassie may have helped authorities establish the probable cause needed to get a judge to sign off on search warrants on the two mansions.
