I wonder if anybody could ID this species by chance. Thanks for any help.

I photographed it on the 5th April 2011 in the middle of Jakarta in the park close to the pet marked at Blok M Shopping Mall.

(I should have resized the pic but now you can at least see the specimen in full size, if it is too large download pic and then zoom out )
