Here is what I think. The pink on the bird are reflections of the sun. So are the lighter markings on the throat. If you have a close look, the chest is yellow. Therefore I’m suggesting Yellow Robin.

How about Olive Whistler!  I think the saturation in the photo might be sightly over done, making the belly appear too yellow.
