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.

Straggler migrant

It's truly the time when most migrant birds have flown back.  However, one could say there are still stragglers, especially these two, the Brown Shrike and the Asian Brown Flycatcher, which are still easily spotted.
There are certainly more than one ABF around but these are not easy to sight as they are almost tiny.



Despite being around for the last few months, this Shrike is still very wary of human presence.  Here's hoping that I could get it in its breeding plumage before it flies home.
