Steps to reproduce:
1. Enter Nether portal frame w/ parrot on shoulder
Expected results: Nether portal will take you to the Nether and vice versa
Current results: Screen will swirl but nothing happens. This will also happen when you are already in the Nether trying to go back to the Overworld
Workaround:
1. Stay inside nether portal frame
2. Close & save game
3. Load game again
4. Nether portal will start taking you to the Nether or Overworld

For added info, my world file is about 700+ MB. Tried using a nether portal in a test flat world and a newly created standard world- it seems to work fine in both survival & creative modes.

Could you attach a recording?

I just realized that the reason for nether portal not working is a parrot was stuck on my shoulder. There are several reported bugs about parrots not being dismounted from player’s shoulder just by jumping or they get stuck in flight mode.
I am not sure if having a parrot on your shoulder that prevents you from going through a nether portal should be a reported bug as well.
I have updated title & description to include the parrot for this bug to happen.

We're tracking this issue at MCPE-27950, so I will resolve and link this ticket as a duplicate.
