SDR duck ID

What duck breed is this? It was with Canadian geese on local pond. Not familar with a white colored duck.

Other photo in front of former blind. Pond now has developments around it.

Looks like either a snow goose or its smaller brother a Ross's goose.

That's what I was thinking

Second photo is easy, ringnecks!

The small goose could be a Ross's.

But could also be a leucistic Canada goose.

Unless it is actually from Canada, then its a leucistic Canadian Canada goose.

Thank you for the assistance . Snow geese are coming through Southern Delaware now but I think this may be a Ross based on your information.

Rossesque, the only way to really tell is by how it tastes in a chowder.
