Scarlet Robin (Female)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

On 14 March 2025, a female Scarlet Robin was spotted at the Skink Habitat at Trin Warren Tam-boore, Royal Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the side of my eye, there was a splash of orange-red colour. I originally thought that it may be a Mistletoebird but on closer look, it appeared to be a Robin. The colouration of the breast suggested that it was a female Scarlet Robin. I tracked her around the Skink Habitat and she eventually settled down and allowed me to take this photograph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I often find Scarlet Robins easier to photograph than Flame Robins. They have a curious nature and has a smaller circle of fear. This is also the first time that I have observed a Scarlet Robin so close to Trin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am hoping that the sighting of this bird marks the beginning of the winter migration of the Robins to Melbourne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
