It's in my living room which is too bright to herd him out, has a 12 foot high ceilings with built in perches so I can't wait him out. Please send help.
Update: cancel the air strike. It either got back out or my cat killed it. If it's any consolation I'm leaning toward got back out since my roommate just got home with his dog and the dog doesn't currently have a dead bird in her mouth.
Bird stuck in the ceiling, eh? Now you're talkin' my language. What you gotta do is get another bird and tie a string to its leg. Then let it go up in the ceiling with the first bird so that they become codependent, and then pull the string to reel in the second bird, and the first one will follow it.

This actually happened before, two years ago when I first moved in and those exact words were the first suggestion I had. Just throw more birds at the problem.
I'm thinking three.
