The firmiana malayana or mata lembu, remains here in testimony to man's care-less-ness - its tree had since been felled. Let not the birds leave too.

The other shrike arrived

Another shrike arrived, the Brown Shrike, again spotted earlier compared to last year.  This is one bird that's most commonly found in parks and even one's backyard.  It's also more easily sighted as it perches in open space unlike the tiger shrike that prefers more wooded or shrubby area.
However, the Brown Shrike in the taman, as previously observed, normally will not come down low and takes off instantly when it senses human approach.
