Answer:
Birds can sit on power lines and not get electric shocks because the electricity is always looking for a way to get to the ground. The birds are not touching the ground or anything in contact with the ground, so the electricity will stay in the power line

There is a simple Explanation to it :-
(i) The feathers on a bird (which act as insulators) do not allow electricity to come in contact with it.
(ii) Electricity flows through an object only when it is in contact with the ground but birds remain with their feet on the wires so, there is no contact with the ground.
