I don't know how you could identify "positive" or "negative" in a power transmission line. Power transmission line is a high potential cable.
A group of high voltage power transmission lines adjacent to each other are normally of the same potential. This is to prevent sparks occurring between each cable in dry weather condition.
Should two birds stand on two separate cables, each of which is of the same potential, clearly there would not be any potential difference between them and surely they would not get any electric shock.
