Sorry for lack of detail, was cleaning out my camera and took a screenshot of this but lost the original pic, with the date and location attached :(

Any help is appreciated,

Hello Dusty,

welcome to Birdforum!

Your birds are Linnets, a male on the left and a juvenile bird on the right.
The male has lost some feathers on its head, but the typical head pattern can still be guessed. Chestnut mantle, white flash in the wing and rosy-red breast is also there.
And please compare the fresh greater coverts with broad buffish wing-bar and the pristine tertials to the worn wings of the adult male.
