By them having webbed feet their feet help push the water behind them with out any holes or dents (like toes would make feet have) for the water to escape from. This allows the duck to push a greater force behind them allowing them to swim faster....ever heard of flippers? Notice how they make you go faster? Well, this is the same concept. :) Hope this helps :)
It depends on the bird. Typically, water fowl (like ducks) have webbed feet (with some exceptions.) Other birds do not.
I believe the webbed feet are to help them swim.
No. Not all birds have webbed feet. Webbed feet are only required by birds at spend a lot of time in and near water, such as shorebirds, seabirds and waterfowl. Birds that do not have webbed feet include birds of prey, poultry, parrots, songbirds, kingfishers and pigeons, just to name a few.
In or near water.
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
No not all birds have webbed feet. Some birds have webbed feet because they swim; take a duck for instance, they use their feet to paddle in the water. Now other birds say like a parrot do not have webbed feet. They use their feet to cling to branches they sit on also to hold their food.
Generally, only birds that live on or near the water have webbed feet to aid in swimming. Birds of prey have individual "toes" or claws (talons) to grip their prey.
Most water birds have webbed feet but the blue-footed booby has both. The blue feet are part of the male's attraction for the female. Other birds have other things that attract females such as the large tail in peacocks and even in wild turkeys.
A web footed animal is an animal that has webbed feet like a duck, goose, or a Flamingo. Many birds have webbed feet. Frogs and some Salamanders do too.
Pigeons do not have webbed feet. This feature is restricted to semi-aquatic birds and waterbirds.
Waterfowl (swans, geese and ducks) are some of the birds with webbed feet. This helps them to swim.
yes they can swim in water if they have webbed feet
