Birds are migrating.

Guess I'm not doing too well with keeping this blog up. Been over a week again since I posted. 

Good news! It has been three weeks since Bill started taking the Zertec and he has not had one episode of extreme fatigue. He was already taking Famotidine for his stomach - it is also an antihistamine.  The article recommended one of each type of Antihistamine. He has been quite active and feeling much better. I so hope that continues. For any one who missed it we found an article on line of a study in the UK about using antihistamines for relief of fatigue due to long covid. Here is a link to one of the articles.  Or just google long covid and antihistamines. Yesterday he took a short walk with no problems. Please let any one you know who is suffering with long covid to check this out. We have also been shopping several times without him wearing out. Today, I hope, one of the maintenance men from the community is supposed to come and fill in the hole at the front of the house from the flood. No idea if/when someone will come crawl under the house, but we haven't tipped over yet so guess jacks/supports are okay. 

Been walking regularly - three times a week. A couple of times over three miles. I got my first Wetlands Walkers reward. A button saying Wetlands Walkers 2023. Got it for walking there five times. Next reward comes at 50 miles of walking. So far since joining have 26 miles logged. So here are some pictures from the last couple of times we've walked. Bill says I post too many pictures from the Wetlands. But what else do I do? The water fowl are starting to migrate south I guess. A couple of weeks ago we didn't see any. 

These ducks? live here year around. Some one told me they thought they had been pets someone dumped here. They are quite friendly. Someone had put some oatmeal here and they were eating it. When in the water they look pure black but when up on land and in the direct sunshine they have shades of blue and green in their feathers. 

I've been trying to find out what kind of duck? they are. Close as I have found a mallard hybrid type. 

The turtles taking a sun bath. 

More ducks, different pond. 

A look at the bridge and water fall. 

The other side of the bridge in the calm water. Blue heron? 

First time we've seen this one a White Ibis. 

Bill is cooking bacon so need to go eat. YUM!
