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.

As natural as ....

 How could one not be heartened when one encounters something that is as it should be - White-thighed Surilis (Presbytis siamensis) feeding off leaves, their natural food, and not 'fake food' left behind by hill walkers.

The Surilis' diet is primarily young leaf shoots, seeds and forest fruits.



These primates are rarely seen alone, and as expected, there's more than one feasting.
