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.

A rendezvous with the Flowerpecker

The Scarlet-backed Flowerpecker is an all-time favourite subject for birders by virtue of its striking appearance.  There is always too the challenge of getting it right because it's small, super fast and super active.





And to add to the challenge is to get it with food in mouth.



And then it's time to off-load a little of what has been loaded!
And what would look cute even as it pooped!



The output sure was sticky because it stuck to the branch even as the bird moved away.
