No, it's not a hybrid. Just as Seagreen is a mutation of the bright green and red RTPF, Seagreen is also a mutation of the Bright green and BLUE BFPF. This bird is a legitimate mutation.

Yep, it's a seagreen BF parrot... I love these but have never seen one in person. Beautiful!
If it were a hybrid you would see some of the red(orange in this case) around the blue of the face and throat.

This is a new one to me too. I'm not sure I like the combination though I love all the other PF's.

I would have said the same Donna, if others didn't say it was a "real" mutation above.

This is a picture of Debbies BF hybrid with a normal green red throat... you will always see some red around thye edges from the red throat parrot finch because their mask is so much larger than the Blue face's mask.
