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.

Babbler doesn't come easy

 I've sighted the Abbott's Babbler (Malacocincla abbotti) so far only at the forest edge and this was the first time high up in the bukit, nevertheless I guess it serves well as a record of the range it covers.

Sensing its movements and calls, I waited and waited but true to its nature, only forages low and deep in, so only afforded a record image.
