I love the symbolism of your interpretation, but I think if they wanted to indicate that the bird had been killed, it would have been indisputable--it's neck would have been clearly broken or it would have had blood on it.
I love the movies too! I love thinking about how they interpret the books and how it can make me understand the books better. I don't like film canon that isn't also book canon in my fics, though. It makes me wonder if the writer has only seen the movies and not actually read the books (and thus have a much shallower understanding of the world and characters).
Lucius's cane is the exception. He can keep his cane.
