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.

Entertained once again by the Iora

There is the melody, then there are darting movements, and one can quite easily guess that the Common Iora is around.  It's still easy to get quite excited by the sight of this tiny bird because it's challenging to shoot, it's entertaining to watch because of its acrobatic twists and turns, it's thrilling when it comes out to the open, and it seldom does.
When one is lucky one gets to view this Iora amidst the flowers, and this can be one real pretty sight.
