Nigel Juhtund was born in the Baltic region of Europe. He immigrated to Terrace Bay, Ontario, and worked in a lumber mill. Juhtund was a naturalist and active bird watcher. From 1952-1985, Juhtund recorded bird sightings in the Schreiber area. In 1990, The Federation of Ontario Naturalists, in Thunder Bay, granted him an award for his bird observations. Juhtund’s bird observation collections currently reside at Lakehead University’s Library Archives.
