The booby, a species of deep-diving seabird, has
large webbed feet. These feet have been given to it by
Allah so that it can swim on the surface of the water or un-
derwater. Boobies dive as well. They dive into the sea to
catch fish with their beaks, and mostly stay under water
for a long time without coming out and swimming long dis-
tances.
