"It was sitting by the side of a grave - it kept flying around.
It came back and was happy to come onto my hand and then looked straight into the camera.
"It was mind blowing - it kept coming back.
It even sat on my shoulder."
Jack died after being diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2014.
Mrs Robinson said: "It never gets easier.
"Whenever we'd go out, Jack and his twin would go robin spotting so it is something we always associate with him - it was just breathtaking.""
