Geese Walking on Ice, Kew Gardens, London.

The Bar-headed Goose (rear) is a very attractive species. Both sexes share the twin-barring on the head. The rest of the head is white with a streak running down the sides of the neck. The back of the neck is dark gray to black, rest of the body gray overall. To insure you have a pair, you may need to vent sex. Immature geese are somewhat paler and lack the bars on the head.

The Emperor Goose (Chen canagica) (front left) is a species of goose. It breeds around the Bering Sea, mostly in Alaska, USA, but also in Kamchatka, Russia. It is migratory, wintering mainly in the Aleutian Islands.

The Greater White-fronted Goose (Anser albifrons) (front right) is a goose species closely related to the smaller Lesser White-fronted Goose (A. erythropus).

Anaheim Mighty Ducks Tickets – What Do You Know ?Bout The Ducks?!

Do you think you know this team? Can you name the players that are on the ice in the games now? What about the coaches, have you seen them or would you recognize them beyond the ice? The Anaheim Mighty Ducks haven’t been doing so hot lately but the season isn’t yet. Here’s a little about whose doing what and where for the Ducks.

This year, the Ducks will be coached by head coach randy Carlyle, assistant coach Dave Farrish, assistant coach Newell Brown, goaltending consultant Francois Allaire with assistant from VIH (very important help) such as video coordinator Joe Trotta, strength and conditioning coach Sean Skahan, head athletic trainer Tim Clark, equipment manager Doug Shearer and assistant equipment manager John Allway.

Forwards Troy Bodie, Ryan Carter, Andrew Ebbett, Ryan Getzlaf, Chris Kunitz, Brad Larsen, Todd Marchant, Drew Miller, Travis Moen, Brendan Morrison, Rob Niedermayer, Samuel Pahlsson, George Parros, Corey Perry, Bobby Ryan and Teemu Selanne. Defensemen Francois Beauchemin, Brett Festerling, Bret Hedican, Kent Huskins, Nathan McIver, Brandan Mikkelson, Seteve Montador, Scott Niedermayer and Chris Pronger. Goalies Jean-Sebastien Giguere and Jonas Hiller.

Currently, players on injured reserve include Brad Larsen, Teemu Selanne, Francois Beauchemin and Kent Huskins. Skaters for this regular season include Getzlaf, Perry, Ryan, Pronger, Niedermayer, Selanne, Kunitz, Morrison, R. Neidermayer, Pahlsson and goalies Hiller and Giguere.

This year’s draft picks were Jake Gardiner, Nicolas Deschamps, Eric O’Dell, Justin Schultz, Josh Brittain, Marco Cousineau, Brandon McMillan, Ryan Hegarty, Stefan Warg and Nick Pryor. Perhaps there’s some method to the madness since every single pick on this list was born in 1990, average out around six feet tall with a couple of exceptions. There may be where the similarities end since the picks source from amateur teams from Minnetonka High, QMJHL Chicoutimi and BAIE-Comeau, OHL Sudbury and Kingston, WHL Kelowna, BCHL Westside, USDP USA U-18, SWE-JR Vasteras JR and USDP USA U-18.

Now that you’ve got a few names and with the season well underway, the Ducks still have more than a few opportunities to make their mark with the remaining games left to be played. This month there’s just one more home game against the Blackhawks on the 28th. In February, the Ducks will play four games at home against the Sabres, Flames, Thrashers and Kings (chronological). The rest of the February games are away with the Ducks taking on the Wild, Predators, Flames, Red Wings, Blue Jackets, Sabres, Bruins and Stars.

In March, the home games will line up the Stars, Wild, Canucks, Sharks, Predators, Coyotes, Oilers and Avalanche. The away games will take the Ducks on the road to take to the ice as visitors against the Blackhawks, Coyotes, Predators, Avalanche and Oilers.

The Ducks will round out the NHL season with April games at home against the Sharks and Stars. The last road trips for away games will be against the Canucks, Sharks and the Coyotes. It remains to be seen how the Ducks will fair but we wish them luck.

Check out this lampoon of the “To Catch a Predator” series. An unsuspecting youth wanders into a kitchen expecting to rendez-vous with an innocent hot dog. Little does he know a TV crew is waiting for him in the kitchen! And the predator has a backpack filled with ketchup and mustard. KETCHUP and MUSTARD! Just imagine what debauchery he planned to unleash upon that poor, unsuspecting hot dog!
