There is no rose-ring around her neck in this image.

Bhargava Srivari posted an image of a rose-ringed parakeet two days back with a ring around its neck.

Thanks for all your educative inputs.

"Rose-ringed Parakeet(Psittacula krameri)
...It is a grass-green parakeet with the typical short stout deeply hooked red bill,and a black-and-rosepink collar.The female lacks the collar,but otherwise is like the male."

Possibly you may have missed 'FEMALE'.

Happy to reply to your query.

Nice perch and eye contact. An off-centered composition with more space on the left would be good. Thanks for sharing.
