Some sort of pied white face? Haven't seen many like her! She's 3 years old, and sadly has been diagnosed by her vet as terminally cute, it can't be cured.

She looks like an aqua turquoise pied peach-faced lovebird.
Funny since she has nearly no aqua! Her tail feathers used to be a bit lighter but over time they've darkened to a navy/forest green. Her primaries also used to be black/blue but after this recent molt, almost all white!

As the pied mutation removes melanin randomly from the feathers, no two pied lovebirds will ever look exactly the same. here is an example of an aqua turquoise pied peach-faced lovebird:

It´s a common diagnosis amongst lovebirds...
