They're favicon.ico or shortcut icon, but your browser likely has a default when the website doesn't have a favicon in the root. If you instead the <head> section of this page, it'll show "shortcut icon" as cdn.sstatic.net/Sites/superuser/img/favicon.ico?v=29b26120d2c5

For the 2 websites you linked, if there's no favicon.ico in the website root, I believe you're going to be stuck with those default icons.
