Geese Photos, Comments Requested

.
I took some pictures of what I believe to be Greater White-fronted Geese x Canada and Snow hybrids. I took the pictures around 6 p.m. on Oct 8 at the Muskegon County Wastewater. 




In the top picture the white goose on the right is smaller than the one on the left; the dark goose looks like a Greater White-fronted x Canada.   In the bottom picture the dark goose looks like a juvenile Greater White-fronted Goose. Sibley does not show any hybrids being all white, so maybe I have a domestic something or other.  Comments welcome!
