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.

Completing the warbler sightings

 The Arctic Warbler has always been one of the earlier arrivals to the taman and I was determined to spot this fella, on the lookout for more than a month already, and finally found it in another part of the taman, not its foraging area in seasons past.  It's thus very likely due to ongoing work down the river that drives it to seek this area of the taman.

CMCO Day 20

It's always a challenge to get good shots of this avian and the fastest and surest way to identify it is by its dark-tipped bill.  And now that it's kept to this area it's all the more difficult to nail it down because of the taller trees it's found about compared to the lower ones in its previous foraging ground.
