  • If the player jumps up and doesn't land on a block that is at least half a block higher than the level you were on. This means that if you jump and land on the same block, the parrot will dismount.
  • If the player drops from a block and lands at least three-fourths of a block lower than the level you were on. This means that if you walk off from one block and land a full block lower, the parrot will dismount.
  • If the player takes any damage.
  • If the player's feet are submerged in water.
  • If the player starts drowning.
  • If the player sleeps on a bed.
  • If the player's head is submerged in lava.

As you can see, making a parrot dismount is very simple. If you don't want the parrot to dismount, don't walk down and be sure not to jump!
