1- None of those sounds natural. 2- "Swift" as a noun refers to an actual family of bird species. 3- You should not try to capture wild birds unless you're trained, qualified and permitted to do so!

"Swift" is the word that best fits here. "Sprightly" is a distant second choice. "Supple" and "limber" can't be used.
