Save thumbnail image directly to S3 in Rails

I'm using an API to grab a thumbnail image. The API request automatically downloads the image. I'd like to store that image directly in my S3 bucket. It seems like overkill to use something like Carrierwave for this. How can I make the API call and save the image directly in S3?
