We have the definition, but we forgot the word itself. And can't find it in a basic search of dictionary and thesaurus.

Anyway, oh those of superlative vocabularies, do you know the word that means, approximately, "The rippling sheen of light as caused by tree leaves moving in the wind."

Yes, there is an English word for it. Honest.

Thanks in advance!
