You CAN get birds off of donkeys and mules!! You needs seeds in your inventory for this. Simply pull the donkey with a lead to an open water source where t you and the donkey will be able to get out easily. Get into the water and pull the donkey with you. Once the donkey gets into the water, the lead will break and the bird will fly off the donkeys back. Quickly swim onto land and turn around and feed the bird until it loves you and follows you. Walk into the bird and it will get on your shoulder. Then you can help your donkey out of the water with the lead if it is having trouble getting out on its own, or you can jump on it and ride it to your desired location. Problem solved. You're welcome everyone.
