Male Flame Robins. Count includes males, females and young we saw. in mixed flocks with Female Flame Robins, Scarlet Robins, Red-brows and Southern Whiteface for a short time. When the thick fog lifted and the sun finally came out mid afternoon the birds appeared on mass and quickly dispersed outward, we just happened to be in the right place at the right time to witness this amazing sight.

as requested have deleted the other 2 listings for Flame Robins, being Female and other ones that we were not sure what they were if they were young of Flame or other.
Apologies for any inconvenience. Hope this meets with your approval.
