These two ducks were swimming together this afternoon in Laughter Pond in
Mill Spring, Polk County, NC. The larger duck with the light yellow bill is
a Khaki Campbell, a British breed of domestic Mallard, continuing in
Laughter Pond since at least July. Am I correctly identifying the smaller
duck with the dark bill as a Northern Shoveler?

Thanks!
