YES! All birds have knees. And NO, they don't "bend backwards."
All vertabrate mammals and birds have the same basic bone structre, just with different proportions to the limbs and some specialized limbs (flippers on a whale, for example.) Penguins have the same basic joints that we have, including toes, ankles, knees and hips.

Oy. None of these people are biologists, that's obvious.
All birds, mammals, reptiles, and adult amphibians have knees. See for yourself (the penguin) at the website below:

No. They waddle around all day and sometimes to get somewhere they slide down hills!
