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.

Too much to stomach

Avian digestion has to be constantly regulated, and so simply natural for this sub-adult Blue-throated Bee-eater too as it promptly cast its rather substantial size of a pellet of indigestible materials, of mainly insect remains it had unceasingly hawked and consumed over the last hour.







And it's all well and good again.



And what else would be more natural as a follow-up than an external ejection as well, ie, preening.
