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.

Flowerpecker's favourite

Even the smallest of beaks can do the job in split seconds, as the Orange-bellied Flowerpecker plucked, squashed and the berry was gone before one can take second blink.
And this hairy berry is certainly the favourite of these flowerpeckers, so should be any birdwatcher's target if one wants to sight them.





And then it's on the forage for another.
