Is this a Juvenille Crimson Rosella please?

Hi,

I'm new to Australia and am having 'fun' identifying anything at the moment.  I have worked out most of the bird visitors to our 'garden'.  We live rurally in established native Eucalyptus woodland with pine around the home and would much appreciate a confirmation of if it is a juveline crimson rosella (Platycercus elegans) or not. 

Many thanks

Where are you, sat? I ask because juvenile Crimson Rosellas & Adelaide Rosellas are similar in appearance.

I'm in NSW but not far from ACT.

Apologies, that didn't quite do what I was expecting.  

The thank you was for yourself.

In that case, I agree with Tim. Crimson Rosella.
