Ducks At A Distance

Bird Identification Question?

I’m in North Georgia. Today I saw a flight of large birds migrating & don’t know what they were. I have seen Canadian Geese — these were different, gray or auburn. They had long, slender necks (similar to a crane) but I couldn’t see the legs trailing behind. They didn’t HONK like geese –made a quieter calling noise. (But I did hear them before seeing them.) There were 26 in sort of a V formation. Any bird watchers that can ID them for me? Thanks :)
