[Cetti]

.......or a swanlet

[HWKE]

Cetti,
Where did you find the word swanlet? I can't find it in any dictionary I can access.

[wildwood]

By crickey, you are right Cetti. In all my $# years of avian interest I had never heard of a swanlet until now.
Just goes to show, one is never too old to learn.

Here is a site that mentions swanlets HKW (on the bottom of the page)
