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.

Smashing time for the Bulbuls

It looks like the taman has its own favourite bath area, that all birds, big or small, go to douse.  With the present rainy season, water flow freely and clean down this little passage, and it's evident that birds simply love the place.  It was the Yellow-vented Bulbuls' turn when I chanced upon the 'bathers'.


Just a pause and I was glad it was not put off by my presence, as off it went splashing again.


Yup, the water must be simply irresistible, going by the splashes.


It finally came up and then it was the other one's turn.


Watching the bird did make one feel like jumping in too, to join in the fun!
