To stand on (like on branches of trees.) Some birds use their feet in different ways. The feet of aquatic birds (ducks, penguins, etc.) are webbed for swimming. Predatory birds (eagles, hawks, owls) have talons which they use to catch their prey. Large Flightless Birds (ostriches, emus) use their feet for running very fast.
how birds' feet help them move through water
By adapting to theirenvironment (noticing the changes in their surroundings and getting used to it ) and to get food or things that will help it to survive.
The same way people do, they slowly walk around in it.
Aquatic fowl have webbed feet which help propulsion in water
Ducks use their webbed feet for swimming.
Webbed feet help animals swim. There are many reasons that this helps them survive in their environment. It helps them swim, which helps them catch prey and escape predators. Webbed feet help beavers make their dam. They help animals just get around in general
By them having webbed feet their feet help push the water behind them with out any holes
Geese have webbed feet as an evolutionary adaptation for locomotion while floating on water. The webbed feet allow them to paddle around on the water.

I believe the webbed feet are to help them swim.
the webbed part, it helps them to resist water more... making them swim faster.Depending on the species, different birds have different adaptations that make their feet useful for swimming. Some birds (such as ducks) have webbing between their toes, others (such as moorhens) have flattened toes. In both cases the birds use their feet as paddles.Most birds' feet are not useful for swimming at all, and many species will not even attempt to swim (or are only able to swim very poorly). Ironically, despite being the most iconic swimming birds, penguins do not have any foot adaptations to help them swim. They use their wings to 'fly' through the water.
Penguins are birds and therefore do not have fur. They have feathers, which insulate their bodies and keep them warm. Oils in the feathers help the birds glide through the water.
The penguins webbed feet help the penguin do many things! Such as: waddle around rather than gliding on their belly the whole time, to help them swim faster, and more!
They have special adapted webbed feet so they can gracefully swim through water and to swim down to the bottom to eat duck weed.
The type of feet bird have can vary by species. Many types of birds have three toes which point forward and one that points backwards. This type of foot allows them to perch and hold onto branches.
Uriates
cause, they don't have any space in their feet for the water to pass through!
