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.

As I was passing

 It normally comes rather quietly and goes about the same way and is easily missed unless one zooms in on the slightest avian movements.

The Grey-capped Pygmy Woodpecker (Picoides canicapillus) is certainly one of the smallest woodpeckers.  And this one looks like a female minus the reddish streak on the side of the crown seen on the male.
