I agree with Herb about the compositions. As far as the backgrounds, I think both can be effective depending on what you are trying to convey. The sky is good if you want to focus attention on the bird itself, it's feather detail, expression, colors, etc. Shooting against foliage, etc. can provide context, and convey a sense of the bird in relation to it's natural habitat. These types of backgrounds also can offer more options for contrasting the subject with the background (light bird against dark background, well lit bird against a background that is in shadow, various background colors or patterns, etc.). I think of the background as just another element that can be used to craft the image to your taste.
