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.

Shrikes of the season

I've always thought that there was only one Brown Shrike in the taman even though I do come across it (or them?) at different parts of the taman in the same morning, after all, birds move about, nothing unusual.

Until I came across this one which I have seen normally by the river and now realised that it's a different one, it's moulting whilst the one that loafs in the inner sanctuary of the taman did not in the least suggest any tendency to moult, probably a first winter visitor that will soon leave for home bearing the present plumage.
