  1. This is the female, only the male has the dark ring. So lovely to see a photo of an Indian ringneck (as they are sometimes referred to) actually in India and not some suburb garden in Europe or Africa. Posted 11 years ago

The rose-ringed parakeet is a medium-sized parrot in the genus Psittacula, of the family Psittacidae. It has disjunct native ranges in Africa and the Indian Subcontinent, and is now introduced into many other parts of the world where feral populations have established themselves and are bred for the exotic pet trade.
