Unable To Get Parrots Off Your Shoulder

In Minecraft,

As to my knowledge, the proper way to get a parrot off your shoulder, is by simply jumping. However, this does not work for me. When I jump, the parrot is still on my shoulder, when I run, the parrot is still on my shoulder. The only way I can get my birds off my shoulder is by jumping in water.

Thank You So Much For Your Time And Effort
