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.

All about the immatures

It is so heartening to always come across a healthy generation of immature birds in the taman.  This bodes well for the taman as it strives to maintain its reputation of being a choice location for birdwatching.  I have always looked forward to encountering any immature bird and a good number of the following were all sighted on a single day.

black-naped oriole 
pink-necked green pigeon


brown-throated sunbird 
eurasian tree sparrow


crested goshawk 
oriental magpie robin


coppersmith barbet 
asian glossy starling


lineated barbet
