Fooled you all. It's me not Elana but all caps looked like fun. ;)
Oh I'm so excited about the new additions. I hope I can get the gorgeous things to breed. I'll post a link to pictures when someone guesses or I cave in and tell you all...

Cheeky!
I do that , so that I can see my posts easily, 'cause my eyes are not as sharp as they used to be.
I'm guessing 'STARLINGS'

Regarding the finches...
No, they are not a species I already have. These are a little harder to come by.

No to Purple Grens. I wouldn't even dream of them until I can get my RCCB to produce and raise their own babies.
And not as rare as the Orange-cheeked RCCB. lol But you're both on the right track thinking waxbill-type birds.

Red billed Fires or Goldbreasts???
That was a good guess on the Starlings

I amaze myself. As to what kind, I have no idea. Are you going to teach them to talk? I hear that they are amazing mimics and quite intelligent.
