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.

Flying juvy Goshawk

Day 22nd, and I saw for the first time the juvenile or should it be a sub-adult now, Crested Goshawk, fly.  It sure came as a surprise as one minute it was perching and the next it was flying right above me to another tree.  What was great this time was that it perched lower and open, and its splendid plumage was more visible and sharper this time.





Gorgeous back feathers looking pristine in the sunlight!



An opportune look at its gorgeous underparts.
