Are you sure the female is Scarlet? It looks more like a female Flame Robin to me, with the upright stance, perched on a rock with wings drooped. Do you have any other photos?

Luke, Added another photo showing the front view. I think you may be right. It was with the male Scarlet Robin so I presumed she was also the same species.

Yes I am now more convinced with female Flame. Can you please make a separate sighting for the female?

Thanks, Will do, however, Edit doesn't work at the moment. Will put the female up as a separate sighting and remove from this sighting when Edit is working again.

Thanks Luke for picking up on that. Alison, I've removed the flame pics from this sighting and adjusted the details as I can see you have now put up the new sighting.
