They are tame enough to eat out of your hand - and they keep coming back for more. I recorded this at my cabin at Northwest Arm just outside Glovertown, Bonavista Bay. There are two grey jays who are regular visitors to my cabin and as soon as they know we're there they make an appearance on my patio waiting for a handout. I even have pictures of them stealing from a can of nuts I left on the patio! The hand in the pic is mine! ... Hide full submission

The McAuley Family Seal (2 comments)
This old video, shot in 1965 in western Newfoundland, shows the seal that lived in the McAuley family's cobby house for several months (see "Cobby Houses," May 2009 issue). The baby seal was found abandoned on a beach and the McAuleys took care of it and fed it as if it were a family pet before setting it free. (This video has no sound.)
