How to prevent onClick method on transparent portion of a PNG-loaded ImageView

Question

I am currently developing an Android app that displays multiple images (as ImageView's) stacked on top of each other. Here is how the layers are currently configured:

• Background layer: scales the entire screen, must be clickable
• Foreground layer: scales the entire screen, must be clickable, contains transparency which allows the user to see some of the background layer

The problem I face is with the foreground layer. I am assigning the onClick() method to the imageview, but the method is being called whether they hit the portion of the image which is visible as well as the part which contains transparency. I only want the foreground ImageView onClick() method to be called when the user clicks a portion of that imageview that is not transparent.

This is what the scenario looks like:

The diagonal lines represent the transparent portion of the Foreground image. If a user touches this space, I want it to access the Background image instead of the Foreground image. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Here is the solution I implemented (Thanks to answer below):

//ontouchlistener - gets X and Y from event
private void setClick(View view)
{
    view.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() 
    {
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) 
        {
            int imageId = getImageId((int)event.getX(), (int)event.getY());
            if (imageId >= 0)
                performActions(imageId);
            return false;
        }
    });
}

//get the ID of the first imageview (starting from foreground, 
//working backwards) which contains a non-transparent pixel
private int getImageId(int x, int y)
{
    ViewGroup parent = (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.relative_layout);
    for (int a = parent.getChildCount()-1; a >= 0; a--)
    {
        if (parent.getChildAt(a) instanceof ImageView)
            if (!checkPixelTransparent((ImageView)parent.getChildAt(a), x, y))
                return parent.getChildAt(a).getId();
    }
    return -1;
}

//get bitmap from imageview, get pixel from x, y coord
//check if pixel is transparent
private boolean checkPixelTransparent(ImageView iv, int x, int y)
{
    Bitmap bitmap = ((BitmapDrawable) iv.getDrawable()).getBitmap();
    if (Color.alpha(bitmap.getPixel(x, y)) == 0)
        return true;
    else
        return false;
}

This one sample makes ImageView's transparent area not clickable.

ImageView:

ImageView imgView= (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.color_blue);
imgView.setDrawingCacheEnabled(true);
imgView.setOnTouchListener(changeColorListener);

OnTouchListener:

private final OnTouchListener changeColorListener = new OnTouchListener() {

    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(v.getDrawingCache());
        int color = bmp.getPixel((int) event.getX(), (int) event.getY());
        if (color == Color.TRANSPARENT)
            return false;
        else {
            //code to execute
            return true;
        }
    }
};
