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.

Recollection - Striated Heron

 The Striated Heron (Butorides striata) is one of the permanent residents of the taman, usually seen alone, easily missed as it can keep perfectly stationary as it eyes a catch, blending perfectly into the background.

I've come across this loner, not necessarily the same bird, a young adult, adult, adult with breeding plumage, mainly along the river.
