Leveling
Due to the experience rates from birds being so low it's highly recommended to skip birds entirely by using random event lamps to level 5/29.
Birds/lamp (1-5/29) Crimson birds 1-19, Green birds 19-27 Require: 2 bird snares
Fairy ring: AKS or Home portal -> Skilling teleports -> Feldip Hills
Birdhouses (Level 5-99) This is technically the most efficient way to obtain 99 but this requires going on birdhouse runs multiple times a day for weeks and leveling it alone side.
Guide from this method can be found here.

Remember you can lay 3 traps at level 40
