This descrive why birds don't get shock when they sit on a transmission line.

They might still get their feet warmed.

Yes, don't get shocked because their claws are calloused and have a high enough resistance so that most of the current gets shunted through the low resistance wire instead of through them.

Lol... i am new to the every circuit and i gave the name 'bird simulation', just for my reference later. I wasn't aware that it will be seen by community.

Sorry guys for disappointing

Really high voltage lines you do not see birds perched on.

Yeah because very high voltages may arc between the wires, and the birds present a lower impedance path than air, so it may jump through them. But it's mostly because birds have a sort of EM sensors and they feel the very high tension lines and avoid them.

@ thebugger: nice
