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.

This appeared to be the younger one and it tended to stay in the background whilst the other was more active foraging back and forth albeit kept to upper canopy.


The more active, and older adult.



As it remained mainly high up, it was mostly belly view images.
