Answers
Birds don't get shocked when they sit on electrical wires because they are not good conductors of electricity. A bird sitting on a single high tension wire does not get electrocuted because electricity will bypass a bird sitting on a wire is because there's no voltage difference in a single wire. For electrons to move, there must be what scientists call a difference in electrical potential.If the bird would touch the ground while sitting on the wire or flap its wings and touch another electric wire with a different voltage, then it would get shocked and likely die by electrocution. This is because its body would become a path for the electricity to reach either the ground (no voltage) or a place with a different voltage.

Because circuit is not completed. If touches the ground or another wire, charge tranfers and it is electrocuted.
