That is not a lot to go by, but it would appear not to be a rosella. My
guess is an escaped lutino Rose-ringed Parakeet or maybe a Golden Sun
Conure (another foreign parrot that exists in small numbers in captivity
and is mostly yellow).

Subject: Young rosella?
At the back of Duffy this morning I saw a young ?rosella
which appeared to be pale yellow apart from a few darker markings. It
seemed to be the size of a crimson rosella. A pair of adult birds had
flown off, but didn't get a good look at them. Does anyone know what it
could have been?
Also saw a pair of rufous whistlers and a group of striated pardelotes
near 2 nesting hollows.
