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.

Parenting morning

It was an unusual morning to encounter more than one parenting moment, especially with the Long-tailed Macaques that are now infrequently seen in the taman.
It was molly-coddling, playful moment for the adult and child.





So absorbed in watching the Macaques, I almost missed another pair, an adult White-breasted (change of name from White-throated) Kingfisher and its young, which looked like feeding by the former.



And further along the path, another unexpected feeding time which looked like it involved the entire family of Yellow-vented Bulbuls.
This adult was seen with its young until another adult flew in unexpectedly, starting a feeding frenzy, or sharing!
