oil on wings... water works too, but it's hard to soak the bird... cut the tail feathers, it makes them lose their balance in flight, they would take off but don't get very far... if the bird would take off, have the ground where they stand on elevate at the same time they're taking off - this removes the forced air from the wings to create lift... birds need to jump a little too to help them take off from the ground... nothing else in my noggin...

This article tells you why birds can fly so if you reverse it you can give reasons that they couldn't. For instance it says their feathers keep them from getting too wet... so absorbing too much water would prevent them from flying.
