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.

Tailorbird to the rescue!

It was going to be a truly dry outing until I was on the way back and was stopped right in my track by the close calls of the tailorbird, and there it was, the Dark-necked Tailorbird just metres away.
As usual it was fast and foraging non-stop and I guessed suddenly felt my presence that it halted to give me a couple of precious shots.



And there, it finally saw me!


And then as a bonus another jumped into view, a younger one.  It was fortunate that this one played longer in fuller view, and allowing comprehensive angles.





It too finally noticed me clicking away!
Unlike the older one, it was unfazed and continued to scan its surrounding.
