I love half cartooning some sketches!!
First and foremost, of course the outline!

The face is the first part i always work on. Usually male zebra finches have a dark cap and a lighter head

Start shading in the body and blending. Zebra finches are very smooth birds so there will likely not be a lot of detailing. Remember that the back is darker then the head and the bottom flights will likely be almost black. A lot of zebra finches also have lacing in the wings( white outlines) Also remember the rump is ALWAYS white on a normal zebra

Add color! for the cheeks, color is almost hard to get. In quick lines, put a few streaks of orange, and a few streaks of light brown. The beak will be red and the legs will be red in the middle with orange toes and edges.

i am a FIRM believer in BLENDING, BLEND BLEND!!! The flanks will also be a chestnut brown.

Add the final touches and detailing and the final picture should be something like this. in my case, Lux has a bit of brown on his back(because he is split to fawn) So the back actually has brown in it(though it's hard to see).
