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.

A migrant revisits

It has been so terribly unexciting in the taman (my apologies to the regulars that still make their presence felt) that I was just dying to come across any winged one that could just make my day!  Then this male Purple-backed Starling flew into sight, ah, one of a pair stragglers I thought since it was with another that just came and went! At last, a beauty that's even more outstanding, that my latest gear has managed to capture!
