Explanation:   The uropygial gland, or preen gland, is an essential part of preening. This gland is found near the base of the tail and produces an oily, waxy substance that helps waterproof feathers and keep them flexible. While preening, birds spread this oil to each feather so they are evenly coated and protected.

Answer:

At the base of their tail, there are preen glands, which secrete oil. Birds carefully apply this oil to each of their feathers. By this method birds such as the Kingfisher and other water birds like the Mandarin Duck preen their feathers
