I would use poly's but it is a personal preferance and depends on what you feel happiest with. It also depends on what software you are using.

Good luck and please post WIP of the bird as it will be helpfull for you to get feedback as the bird is being built and because we all like to see work develope.

not a bad start, although the proportions need more attention.

Not too bad. The proportions are off a little, so watch them.
