My original shot was very much like this. But when you get down to opening it on the computer and you notice something like aa errant hair, well a retake is needed. So out came all the pieces again.

Part of my collection of 'stuff' that I will never use again, but like to hang on to. Not a huge amount but a few items going back to my childhood, is that normal?
Taps is the traditional bugle call at the end of a day. This Red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) didn't know the tune but gave it a try. Setting sun across 'Eagle Pond' at Loess Bluffs NWR and some reeds filled in the rest.
A Black Skimmer just taps the surface of the water with the tip of his beak as he comes to a landing with the rest of the colony.

Never mind the locals taking their taps off in Scotland on a hot day, the current climate situation here has officials asking people to use water sparingly and turn their taps aff! The reservoirs are running low - in SCOTLAND - a country much derided for its wet weather.
Keep yourselves cool and hydrated my Flickr friends.
Never waste water - we cannot live without it.
I bought this tiny bar of soap over a year ago thinking it might make a nice prop. I've no idea what it looks like inside, but I liked that it glowed when the sun shone through it ... and that it was tied up with hairy string! There's a dolls house bath behind it and the starfish in the foreground is madly tiny (less than ½" across). :)

For 118 pictures in 2018, # 56 "Tap". This is a collection of beer taps at a restaurant bar in Chicago, taken on a recent business trip with my phone, which is the only camera I had with me.
Noisy nature comes alive all around:
Wind rattles through the leaves,
Birds swoop, and chicks cry out for food,
Some sing sweet melodies, while others squabble over scraps.
Insects hum and whir,
Weaving a gentle, constant backdrop.
Squirrels chatter as they scamper up tree trunks,
Claws scratching against rough bark.
A woodpecker taps a steady rhythm on a hollow branch,
It's drumming echoing through the park.
Ducks quack noisily as they paddle across the pond,
Splashing and flapping their wings.
Bees buzz busily from flower to flower.
In the distance, a dog barks—
Its voice drifted faintly through the air.
