BUG: HTTPError for points close together

[raybellwaves]

Default source (cx.providers.Stamen.Terrain) gives HTTPError for points close together.
Another source works (e.g. cx.providers.Esri.NatGeoWorldMap) but a small zoom has to be specified (e.g. zoom=1).
Not sure if "auto" can handle this case.

import contextily as cx
import geopandas as gpd
import pandas as pd


df = pd.DataFrame(
    data={
        "lon": [24.061341666666667, 24.061378333333334],
        "lat": [37.69585333333333, 37.69589],
    }
)

gdf = gpd.GeoDataFrame(
    df,
    geometry=gpd.points_from_xy(df["lon"], df["lat"]),
    crs="epsg:4326",
)

cx.add_basemap(gdf.plot(color="red", figsize=(16, 16)), crs=gdf.crs)

gives

This works
