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.

Only the Shrikes?

I've been wondering why there is a present dearth of migrant birds in the taman, not even the regular flycatchers are seen or heard.  Thus it's most heart-warming whenever I chanced upon the Brown Shrike, revealing its presence with its shrieks.



In fact there are two which is why the calls are constantly heard.
