What kind of bird is this?

I see this bird in the shadows most of the time & by the time I get my camera it is usually gone..It looks something like a robin, but I dont think it is.....The robins have black heads & are a little smaller.......First file is the mystery bird, second file is a robin

Thank-you Ubu...I have some of their feathers I found in my yard...maybe I will make earrings out of them. I also found some red feathers, but put them in a pocket & cant find them..Its not everyday you find feathers like that. I collect them .
