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.

Hey Myna, big is not necessarily good

 What's scrap to one is capital to another, if it can be handled befittingly (pun intended)!

The Common Myna (Acridotheres tristis) must be glad to come across such a big piece of throwaway as it must surely mean less materials needed so less trips to cosy up its nest.






Even as I rooted for it to succeed in stuffing its find into the hole nest, I was as curious to watch how it would manage to to get it all in.



Unfortunately that was all as far as it could go because the plastic was quickly blown away in the afternoon breeze.
Hmmm ... 'carve the peg by looking at the hole'?(Korean saying)
