The only danger comes in standing around on a cold day: with one foot tucked up and blood flow greatly reduced to the other, there is a possibility that the exposed leg will freeze. This can be countered by staying in a nest or, in aquatic birds, by going into the water. As long as the water is in a liquid state, the bird legs floating in it can’t freeze.
