Saw these at the show and I am curious what species of finch they are?

The top pic has Black Rumped Waxbills AKA Red Ear Waxbills, the second pic is a Lavender and I can't see the third one well enough to tell. Hope that helps some.

Quite correct. Red-eared waxbills, and a lavender finch. The 3rd bird looks like a yellow-winged pytilia. The 4th bird that is obscured by the wire mesh could be a female swee.

The fourth bird in the picture could also be a female yellow-winged pytilia. The male yellow winged pytilia has the red head.
