I recently spent a week on the south coast of Western Australia. The place we stayed at had so many birds it was like paradise. Here are a couple of shots of a Scarlet Robin that didn't mind having his photo taken.

Yes, that is the true colour of the male bird.

Just had to go through your posts JFK. :)

I like this, you are very skilled and persuasive to get so close. What a rare experience.

I would crop #2 a little wider, though I do feel this crop does show off the subject very well.
