A small hummingbird with a rounded body and shimmering green and blue feathers sits on a lichen-covered branch, its head slightly tilted and bill partially hidden. The background is a smooth, dark green.

A black howler monkey is resting on a tree branch, with its arms hanging down and a calm expression on its face. Lush green leaves surround the scene.
