Summary: Winston Churchill, dressed in a pinstripe siren suit, and complete with hat and cigar, demonstrates the lack of fear of a robin that feeds from his hand by the carp pool at Chartwell.
Description: Filmed from varying angles, and in varying degrees of close-up, Churchill offers the robin food from his hand, from the lid of the food container, and (unsuccessfully) on the rim of his hat. There is also a view of Churchill feeding the carp in the pond - it is in fact fish food that he feeds the robin - and several shots of the robin on its own, in one of which it appears to be feeding a young bird.
