Pretty sure you're right, male and female house finches, look at those similar beaks. I am not an expert. They're nice birds, sing pretty.

I'm assuming the red one is the male? In birds, the males are more colorful usually, right?

Yes. Listen for a liquid melody and look for him perched high somewhere. Used to be one liked to sit on a branch beside my open bathroom window to get the shower acoustics.
