Or if you want it to look more like the classmethod and
staticmethod idioms, you could do something like this
(probably making propertymethods a bit smarter):

def propertymethods(f):
    return property(*f())

class Parrot(object):
    def count():
        "Treat mostly-parrots as full parrots."
        def Get(self): return self._count
        def Set(self,count): self._count = int(round(count))
        def Del(self): self._count = 0
        return Get,Set,Del,"Current parrot count"
    count = propertymethods(count)
