83/365 Perched on the lily

I set out to photograph the tiger lilies, but this little guy was perched front and center, so I couldn't resist.

If you look at the size of his body in relation to the diameter of his legs, it's amazing he's so well balanced and agile. Yet another amazing feat of nature.

I suppose when you have six legs to handle your weight instead of just two, your legs become especially svelte.
