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.

Triller treat

The Pied Triller is not as commonly sighted in the taman as one may hope.  It's also not easy to spot a pair together so when I sighted them on separate occasions, I still consider it a treat.

The male bird is fairer compared to the female that is rather brownish but both bear a striking black from the base of the bill to the back of the neck.
