Don't want to be rude, but it looks like some kind of a parrot to me.  Love to know what it is as well as I am newbie on bird watching. Where did you take the photo? backyard or in some park?

I agree its a lovebird. Try and see if you can get it to come to your hand. Tempt it with some food or water
