What are these? Identify this bird!

Theses birds always hang out in my back tree, they seem to be some sort of finch. I looked on wiki for native finches here in Hawaii but couldn't find anything that matches their description.

Here is a ( bad photo) of the two birds since I didn't want to scare them off. They are a cute couple nevertheless.

Java Rice Finches! Also called Java Sparrow.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_sparrow This mentions that they are in Hawaii.

Oh wow! That was quick! I wasn't sure if these birds were wild native birds or somebody's lost pets lol I've had lost lovebirds hanging out in my back trees as well, attracted by the sounds of my own lovebirds.

Well...I just had my windows fixed in the back, replaced actually so I prob couldn't see them if they were there until now. I thought at first that they could be someone's pets because they were staring at me thru the window..lol
