    The correct answer is C. "Espied" literally means "to catch sight of." If you're not sure of the definition, you can find the correct answer with context clues. The second sentence says "The man was gleeful at the sight ...," which tells us that the answer is linked to seeing the seals. There is no evidence that he touched (bumped), heard, or caught the seals.
