the first diagram shows a bird perching with raised wings
Note the large keel and again no scapula.
Now below is a photo of two local birds.
There's actually not that much size difference between the two. One just looks bigger simply cos its sitting up straighter and and has lengthened its neck and legs.
This shot shows what I call the walking stance. It was taken in summer and yeah the bg is overexposed but it does show a nearly "BIPED" stance.
So if you were drawing a cockatoo humanoid hybrid yes they can straighten their legs out longer as but they also squat down when perching so you could give them humanoid legs but note in the top diagram the position of the femur ...
... but I just want to draw a sexy pinup anime bird with boobs ...
Sigh just try to remember the big chest is muscles attached to the "keel" .
Your humanoid avians can still have breasts if you insist but could you at least give them much larger muscles leading up from the furcula to the shoulders?
And don't forget they have longer more flexible necks than humans!
