The Birds of Taman Rimba Kiara

If you're lucky enough, you might spot an Oriental Pied hornbill flying around Taman Rimba Kiara in Taman Tun Dr Ismail. You can also catch sight of other species of birds like Brahminy Kites, Crested Goshawks, and this past week, you might have even seen flocks of Purple-backed Starlings. This small and threatened urban park is an ideal ground for bird watching, and is teeming with other wildlife, insects and plants. We find out more about what this small park has to offer, from Roselyn Chuah, an avid birdwatcher and Taman Rimba Kiara nature blogger, who has been documenting the flora and fauna found in the park since 2014.
