On no account stun it with a stone!  youll probably kill it.
Really, it is quite simple:  just get your garden hose out
and soak it down.  The bird will not be able to fly very
well when soaked, and you can then shake or chase it out
of the tree.  You might have a pail of water ready to douse
it with when it lands.  Then throw a towel over it and
you are a proud new parrot owner!
