Another couple that are confusing me, any help gratefully received:

This one I thought either Linnet or Twite

This one I'm not sure about at all

Number one is a Linnet, number two a Chaffinch

Thank you for that :-)

I suspect the hint of pinky red coming through on the breast sides points to this being a male. Males lose their bright colours in winter so resemble females much more than in summer.

Thanks Dave, Linnets have got me before this winter.
