It's typically a malapropism that is used to add a wry wrinkle to the speaker's overt disinclination to use either of the clichéd metaphors "horse of a different color" or "bird of a different feather." Also technically a catachresis used either wittingly or not to convey the speaker's opinion that something doesn't quite fit the norm of an object of its type.
Shooting the bird is an obscene hand gesture which means to "bugger off" or "screw you". It's not a nice thing at all and is meant to anger people. It's also a sign of complete disrespect for another individual.

it means that a bird died.
that is good luck (i think)
A bird in the Hand is worth two in the bush. Basically its expresses that you should be happy with what you have, If you leave it to try and get something better, you may not get either.
Usually, both in modern times, and in times gone by, it means a bird has lost some feathers!
