Cackling geese?

Are the front two Cackling Geese, or Lesser Canada Geese?

I'm leaning towards Canadas.  But I'm not all that familiar with all the subspecies of either Cackling or Canada Geese...so there's a chance I'm wrong.

To me Cackling Geese and their bills are noticeably smaller.  But maybe I only look for the super obvious Cackling Geese while missing the less obvious subspecies with which I'm not familiar.  And what of hybridization?  What do we know of Cackling/Canada hybrids?  Do they exist?

I'm thinking it might not be Cackling but a subspecies of Canada Goose. The size somewhat fits Cackling but the bill does not.
