How do you catch a lorikeet in a tree?
If it's your bird and is acclimated to you, stay there. Get someone to grab some favorite foods and toys. If the parrot associzates the cage with "home", being out hte cage (conversely, if the cage is not a comforting symbol, leave it alone). Have a towel ready to make the capture. DON'T TRY AND GRAB THE BIRD SUDDENLY UNLESS YOU KNOW YOU'LL CATCH IT. If the bird flies off, keep the means of escape open, and leave attractive foods for it to feed on. While parrots do very well in the wild in most of the US, it takes a while to acclimate, and you have a good chance of recovery. If this isn't a bird who knows you, recovery chances are slim. They're hugely intelligent and not happy about being captured by strangers. FInally, you can consult your local Animal Control about Live Traps if nothing else works.
