It's a double edged sword. You probably won't be able to think up an example of a supernatural assertion that doesn't imply or outright claim that the supernatural can interact with the natural. In your example above, the nuts say they saw it. Presumably...with their eyes. That's interaction with the natural. However, we define things today as belonging to the natural set because they are a set of things that interacts with each other.
This frustration appears in debates between material monists and dualists of any kind - when they notice that as we discover more and more...more and more gets included in what's "material".

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
