I'm no duck expert, but, with that bill, what else could it be?

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!
