Thanks Sandra, this is indeed a Robin Red Breast, one made famous by Beatrix Potter.

The settings for this were:

Nikon D5000
70/300 F4.5 5.6
Iso 640
1/100th
f5.6 @ 300mm (450 cropped sensor)
subject at 6.3mtrs.

I hope that helps you.

Again thanks

Love the robin!! Our robins are not as colorful as yours, plus I think ours are larger, too! Good shot!

Thanks Wanda, glad you liked it; the good thing with the Robins is that they are so friendly to humans and will sit and pose for you.

Again, thanks for looking and your kind comments
