Electricity flows along the path of least resistance.Birds don't get shocked when they sit on electrical wires because they are not good conductors of electricity. Their cells and tissues do not offer electrons an easier route than the copper wire they're already traveling along.

Something gets electrocuted when it completes a circuit, usually to the ground. Since the bird's feet only connects the power line to more power line, the electrons would "rather" go through power line because it has less electric resistance than the bird's feet.
