Taman Rimba Kiara is a little green gem located in a corner of the TTDI residential area. The above flowering tree, the firmiana malayana or mata lembu, flashes in testimony to man's care-less-ness - it's one of only two trees in the park that had flowered, since then the tree had been chopped down.

Confiding Cuckoo

Past images of the Square-tailed Drongo-cuckoo were not too satisfactory even though I chanced upon the bird perching right in front of me.


But the morning it gave me some decent shots also revealed its confiding nature as it flew right before me, hardly five feet away to where I was actually photographing it on another perch, also convinced me that this one could be a migrant, still unwary of human presence.
