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.

When man acts irresponsibly, to say the least

It was so exciting when I saw the Brahminy Kite swoop down to fish something from the pond just metres away from me!  Furthermore the minute it fished it out a Black Crow sped in, tried to knock it off the Kite, and I guess the Kite thought it had secured its catch when it flew to the sanctuary of this tree.


And then it was so heartrending when I zoomed in and saw what the Kite has caught!  A piece of plastic bag with something which I still could not make out.
 


Fortunately the Kite decided to release it when it found that it couldn't get to whatever was in there.


Hmmm, was there some regret that it had to let go?  Perhaps because it had mouths waiting to be fed!
