I wouldn't think any significant form of active transport would be going on in a dead bird. Also, I think the sodium-potassium pump pumps sodium out, not in, although you could be talking about a different pump?
In the absence of any pumps going on, I would imagine a 35% solution would be extremely hypertonic compared to the interior of the cells, and water would definitely flow out.
