I was up at Mew Lake last weekend and was also lucky enough to see some Pine Martens and Grey Jays.  Here are my better photos and a video.

Great shots Jon.  Really like the first marten picture -  looks like he's in a much better mood!  Have to agree with Denis on the grey jay - lighting and detail on the tail feathers makes a great pic.
