Here you are Chris, just about the size of a starling.

Doesn't take long to look up https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin, Chris.

European robin (Erithacus rubecula) - I think Britain is still European in this context.
American robin (Turdidae migratorius) - so named by 1703, a member of the Thrush family. Presumably not so named by the native First Peoples.

Well when I was last in the US I did try and get a picture of the American robin, but all came out less than perfect, but yes it looks most like a blackbird.

As to squirrels, here is one I snapped in Flushing Meadows, Queens, NY



Looks like any old grey squirrel you might see here.

Now a few more "street art" pics.

This is up on the side of a building.



Sorry about the lamppost, but that was the best pace to get the shot, quite striking.

This next one on an empty shop.



This on a side wall.




And this one make you think you have trouble focusing!!



I actually hadn't realised there were that many.
