ID Parrot Mt Isa

Hi I am just trying to Id this Parrot we spotted at the caravan park at Mt Isa. I think it is a type of rosella as it sounded like one.

Hi Dremus,
.
I like the photos you've posted - especially the Wedgie. They're glorious birds.
.
Just from a quick look on the BiBy website, I'd suggest an Australian Ringneck (http://birdsinbackyards.net/bird/362), particularly the description of the Cloncurry subspecies.
.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
Tim

Thanks mate,

I did some more research and found that you are correct.

It is the Cloncurry sub-species of the Australian ringnecks
