Two Mismatched Spoonbills

Today, after taking the gran’kid to school we drove the long way home and passed these two spoonbills.

I had time to take lots of photos, but this one was my favorite. I’m not sure why their bills are different colours. I thought that meant they were two different species. The one with the black bills are Royal Spoonbills. The paler bill is the Yellow-billed Spoonbill. Maybe I’m wrong. Help me out here….
