Female Petroica Robin, was there any orange wash on breast?

Couldn't tell - they were not front on. There was at least one male but I couldn't get a photo. I need to call in the bird experts with good cameras..

Ryu, why do you think this is a Scarlet rather than a Flame? I would have thought there would be some hint of forehead white despite the angle and the upper looks more brownish than greyish. Chris
