Around here, they're called Black-capped Chickadees, and they're pretty fearless generally. There's a flock of about 10 around here, and maybe two or three will come to my hand, but the others will come to the feeders beside me.
That's cool about the Robin! I wouldn't think they would even come THAT close to people!
Apparently the European Robin is far more people-confident than its American cousin. We also have a Wood Pigeon and a female Blackbird that wander in, along with the occasional buzz-bombing by Sparrow!
