Flame Robin vs Scarlet Robin

[Rob Geraghty <>]

This morning in Canberra I saw a bird which I think was a female Scarlet Robin, 
but the breast colouration looked more orange than red to me.  Is it possible 
for a Flame Robin coming into maturity to have colouration similar to a female 
Scarlet Robin but with a half-orange breast?

I'd have spent more time observing but it was raining and very windy.

Thanks for any feedback from those more familiar with Robins.
