He was appointed bird warden by the Canadian Wildlife Service. This work is now carried on by his daughter, Trudy. The lives of Trudy, her husband Jack, and their daughter Susan, now 17, complete the trio whose adventures and experiences are recounted in this fascinating story.McVeigh, Ruth M. is the author of 'Fogswamp Living With Swans in the Wilderness' with ISBN 9780888391049 and ISBN 0888391048.
