The firmiana malayana or mata lembu, remains here in testimony to man's care-less-ness - its tree had since been felled. Let not the birds leave too.

Banana, anyone?

Banana, banana everywhere but none seem interested, neither man nor beast.  Nevertheless this alluring wild cluster (or also known as a hand) of bananas did make me gaze longingly at it, wishing it's for the taking.  This luscious cluster certainly testify to the rich soil in the taman.


Truly like slender sexy fingers, and no wonder that a single banana is also known as a finger!


At the other end of the taman, there was another cluster for the teasing.

It's Banana time

I was happily diverted when I caught sight of a few fruiting banana trees, looking simply gorgeous and alluring!

Fruits of the wild

Stunning colours and shapes.  Who would not be attracted to these?

Gorgeous huge bunch of the wild palm

Attractive even when it's drying up

Furry red clusters, exquisite green leaves
A coppersmith barbet with leftover sweetness on its beak after its feast

Wonder if these are a hard nut to crack!


Tantalising clusters
A yellow-vented bulbul stands guard over its pick

Stunning red goblet of a fruit, perhaps poisonous as it was left well alone

Pleasing shades of brown, only nature can create

Wild green banana, gorgeous maroon flower
