WAKING ROUTINE

I happened upon a goose one morning and was able to observe a little of it's life and morning wake-up procedure. 
So I figured this must be the routine. 1st you sleep standing on one foot so that one is warm and the other frostbitten. 
2nd you start to wake up and stand a little taller but of course you must remain on the one foot.
3rd, well you gotta start getting that other foot use to the cold. 
So 4th you stretch it way out behind you in the cold air.
5th get ready to set it on the ground but shake it a little while doing so because then the shock of the cold hard earth won't seem quite so bad.
6th (And this is where it really gets shocking) you jump into the cold water to go for a swim.
I really don't understand this animal world but if swimming in a cold lake early in the morning is their thing then just go right ahead and do it cause I won't be following in it's padded steps.
