Identify help -- Egyptian goose (Alopochen aegyptiaca)


These birds are near my 3 acre pond but I have never seen them in the water with the other ducks and geese. They come every winter for a few months. What are they?

=======
The Egyptian goose (Alopochen aegyptiaca) is a member of the duck, goose, and swan family Anatidae. Alopochen aegyptiaca is native to Africa south of the Sahara and the Nile Valley. Egyptian geese were considered sacred by the Ancient Egyptians, and appeared in much of their artwork. They have been raised for food and extensively bred in parts of Africa since they were domesticated by the ancient Egyptians.
