Have it's wings clipped. The first time, I would have someone who knows how do it. On the ends of the wings, depending on the species, you cut off between 1/4 to 1/3 of the feathers about 1/3 to 1/2 of the feather from the tip of the feather to the base. This lessons the amount of lift the bird can create and the best they can do is a controlled crash. The feathers will grow back and have to be clipped again in 4-6 months. If you cut too much off, you can get into the blood supply which is very serious in a bird. That is why you should have someone who know how do it. Also, the bird can resent it and that way it isn't mad at you.

What happens when wings are not clipped?
clipping a bird's wings means cutting the feathers short on one wing. This keeps the bird from flying away because if it tries to fly with one wing clipped short, it can't balance. If the wings are not clipped, then the bird can fly away.
