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.

Like meeting old friends, the Woodpeckers

Many used to seeing frequently the Common Flameback Woodpeckers have been asking where are these winged ones?  It's true that these birds have not been commonly seen as before.  So when I encountered this pair one morning, I couldn't have enough of them.
On this occasion the male was more visible than the female although both flew in together.




This image managed to capture the Woodpecker at its best.

The female seemed to keep to a smaller foraging area. 

It's always a bonus and a thrill to be able to capture both together.
