Probably Sandy. Lots of people mistake wrens for hen robins.
Male and Female both have Red breasts, sandy. I wonder if it's a youngster that hasn't got it's full plumage yet.
wren?

It's probably a young one. It's a dead ringer for the adult with the one obvious exception.
I'd imagine there are a lot of guys named Robin (maybe a few gals too) who do not have a red breast. Might cost a lot in ointment otherwise.
I understand that the "Robins" of the UK are not the same species as called "Robins" here in the U.S.

Having said that, young Robins here do not have the fully developed red breast, but the breast is grey/brown and is mottled with white areas. This probably lasts about a month after they exit the nest and become active...

BTW... here's yours: http://www.garden-birds.co.uk/birds/robin.htm
And here's ours: http://www.audubon.org/field-guide/bird/american-robin

I recon Tonyav, has it, probably a youngster / juvinile.
Usuall specled if you look closely (very similar to the spotted flycatcher)
