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 :)
Flamingos have long legs because if a preadator bites it from underneath the water the flamingo can fly away!
Flamingos inhabit shallow muddy or swampy water and have webbed feet so they won't sink into the muddy bottom.
To keep them warm, and to help them to fly
it helps it to swim and stir up their food
Yes, flamingos have webbed feet.
so they can fly

It depends on the bird. Typically, water fowl (like ducks) have webbed feet (with some exceptions.) Other birds do not.
In or near water.
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.
I believe the webbed feet are to help them swim.
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.
yes they can swim in water if they have webbed feet
