Lesser Greenlet
Hylophilus decurtatus

Lesser Greenlet, a member of the vireo family, is an abundant resident of low-elevation forests in the neotropics. Greenlets are quite easily seen, but I haven't gotten jaded by them yet, so I thought to capture these images of a charming fellow found outside Panama's Canopy Tower in September, 2004.  


A charming Lesser Greenlet.
