Wednesday Walk BY the duck pond

Tuesday I had some issues and ended up in the ER and now in a hospital ward overnight and will have a small surgery this morning to get me back on track

So I apologize in advance if I don’t get to visit all the Wednesday walk posts this week

This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)

Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)

Let me start with this photo of this duck, before I talk about the walk

This past week I have only been out for one walk, where I got these shots by the pond in Buttonwood Park.

IT wasn't a good week for me for walks, Monday was a nice sunny day, but alas that morning I had a medical test and after that I didn't have the energy for a walk.

After that we had a few rainy days and add to that my Knees were really not in the mood for walking this week, for a few days I was hobbling around the house and didn't get back much, not sure why but there starting to not bother me so much now so hopefully on nice days I will get out for walks in the days ahead.

But as it happens that was written last Sunday when I Prepared this post
Tuesday I had some issues and ended up in the ER and now in a ward overnight and will have a small procedure this morning to get me back on track

So I apologize in advance if I don’t get to visit all the Wednesday walk posts this week

And as I always do when I walk around the duck pond I take a shot of this little island in the middle of the pond

Weekly giveaway of shares

This week I am sending to the following who joined Wednesday Walk, for this week I did a random draw and the following each received some Hive @haastrecht, @moremoney28, @bloghound, @grocko and @slothlydoesit

And @elizacheng will send to @stephen-patrick


As @elizacheng and I collaborated with our Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenges

And one person is randomly drawn who joins both challenges to receive one Hive from me and this week it is @TBA

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.

This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines

Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.

Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.

Try and get a few shots not just one

Add a bit of a write up about where you walked

Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week

You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.

Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss

Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .

Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.

Make me Smile Collaboration

As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the [Make Me Smile] hosted by @elizacheng,

Here are the rules for her challenge

Your post can be writing, singing, video, poem,drawing, photography etc.... the most important part is your post Make me" smile, Remember, the ME is whoever read/view/listen to your post and this includes YOURSELF.
b. Your content must be ORIGINAL CONTENT
c. Please include at least 50 Words in your post

I hope a few of you may find this an interesting challenge and decide to join in.


unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

Nice to see you were out for a walk this week and got some good photos. The mallards are beautiful. Hope you are doing well and get out for a walks this week too 👍

Thanks, not a good week thus far so not sure i will make any photo walks this week, but lets see

I hope you are okay! You can take a walk in the hospital right? 🤭😋

Thanks I am home now
As for walking in the hospital, funnily enough yesterday they did allow me to walk around the ward for a bit LOL

Dude, I am in the hospital now to.... all alone in Spain.... 🙈 sufear pain in my leg from out of my back🤯 tomorrow u get an MRI, hopefully it's not too serious.

Ohh no sorry to hear that I hope the MRI shows the root cause and you get good treatment and the pain goes and wishing you a full recovery

I am home now and hope for good

I am 2500 km from home 🙈

Happy humpday @tattoodjay.. Those shots are beautiful, especially the reflections of ducks in the water.. They are cute btw 😊

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

Oh my gosh, I hope you are okay! That sounds kind of scary. It sounds like they have a plan to get you better though! I just finished up my wednesdaywalk post a couple of minutes ago. That little island is really cool. Amazing how nature finds a way to beat the odds!

Thanks, I got home yesterday, still a bit run down but great to be home, they kept putting off the procedure hoping the body would heal itself and stop the bleeding, which touch wood it seems it may have

I havent had time to visit the Wednesday Walk posts this week and not sure I will for the first week since running it, catching up on some replies this morning, and will see how I feel later and decide whether to try to visit them all or if I dont feel up to it I wont visit any this week

Totally understandable. Just take it easy and work on healing. I am glad you are home. That always makes it more comfortable.

Ohh yes great to be at home, hoping this is all in the past now but time will tell LOL

Hey @tattoodjay
What kind of duck is that? I mean the ones with colorful heads. Maybe the ducks are a little bit different in Vietnam. By the way I like the first photo with the reflection of a duck.

I think they are Mallard ducks but not 100% sure

Sorry to hear that you ended up in the hospital, @tattoodjay! That's never good to hear.
I hope the procedure will be successful and that you will be better soon!

Your photos are absolutely great as always!

I do agree with you about the color of the duck's head. It's absolutely beautiful!

Thank you for sharing these photos and get well soon! You'll be in my prayers for a speedy recovery!

You'll find my post here...but that's only if you feel up to it and if you have the time.

Thanks so much, they kept putting off the procedure hoping the body would stop the bleeding itself, which touch would it did and I am now back home as long as it doesnt start again

I am feeling a bit run down, so havent visited any of the Walk posts yet, catching up with comments first and if I feel up to it later may try to visit the walk posts later

That's a relief to hear that the bleeding stopped and I'm glad that you are back home! Let us believe it won't start again!

I can understand that you feeling run down! Don't push yourself. Get better first! Your health is first priority now!!

Thanks, so far so good hopefully this is all in the past, but time will tell I see the Drs on Monday

That sounds promising! All the best with your visit to the Drs. I hope and trust that you will get good news!

Thanks I am sure it will all go well

Me, my!!! The first photo and those that follow speak of calm in the inside while madly paddling inside. That's what ducks are!
I am on my third day of vacation, @tattoodjay ! !LUV

I am sorry to hear that you had to spend the night at the hospital. Everything will be fine and am sure you will fully recover. Unfortunately our human bodies can let us down sometimes, but they are quite resilient and heal well. Wishing you a quick recovery and you getting back out there taking wonderful pictures like the ones on this post. The ducks are looking superb enjoying the water.
