Upside Down Feast

I hiked up Pico da Caledônia hoping for the views, but the fog had other plans. Couldn't see a thing from the top. On the way back down, though, this brassy-breasted tanager showed up hanging upside down from a berry branch, completely unbothered. Honestly, it made the whole trip worth it. Sometimes the best finds are the ones you weren't looking for.
