Jim, 

Do you mean a needle used for sewing sails and canvas?

While Roger's suggestion has merit, it also has drawbacks.  To be effective you have to spend most of your time waiting for the offender to roost.  Your neighbors might also take offense to this method. 

Short of a masthead antenna, which does make it a tricky perch, I have found a large sail needle mounted vertically keeps them off.  One attempt to settle on the mast head usually gets their attention real fast.
