why, when birds sit on transmission lines or current wires
doesn't get shock?

Answer Posted / alwingp

As the Bird is not touched on other lines or earth, the
circuit is not closed through the bird. Current flows only
through a closed circuit, So in this case current does not
flow through bird and so it will not get electric shock.
