Nature creates the most beautiful settings: Hidden in the thicket, just one opening with clear view, we found this living gem, a Violet-crowned Plovercrest. Fairytail atmosphere automatically created in the shot! Looking back, I forgot all the efforts to get to this shot, waiting in the cold and getting soaking wet on that rainy morning in Intervales State Park.
