Answer:

Explanation:The thing is not about sitting or touching a 11000volts wire or sitting on a 21000volts wire. As you will be knowing that electricity always requires a material (conducting material) to pass through.

And earthing made this possible because when you touch a 220v live wire, the current in it flows from your sensitive body to earth as your legs are in direct contact with earth and you can feel an electric shock but not in the bird's case as their legs are in direct contact with live wire and not with earth.That's why a bird sitting on a live wire didn't get a shock .       Feeling obliged to answer
