Unknown Species of bird...Can someone help!!!

[scottmcvey]

I have recently rescued a bird and was told it was a Eclectus Parrot, but I am not that sure, can someone identify it?
Cheers

I'm notoriously bad at IDing parrots. But unless I am completely upside down and turned around I can say an eclectus is one thing that this bird is certainly not.

I'd guess it's a Regent Parrot

Thanks for confirming that its not a Eclectus...Hopefully someone can tell me what it is!

 

[TexDot33]

strikes me as maybe a parrotkeet ... of some sort ...

Thanks to everyone who has replied, I believe the bird is a Regent Parakeet (Polytelis anthopeplus). As it fits the discription perfectly.

I am entirely new at this but found this pic and it looks like yours and your right it says regent parakeet
