Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

Welcome to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest Round 135!

We had a week on wings, so why not to continue with another part of bird's body? What I would like to show me in your entries for this round is BEAKS/BILLS. Now, here I have to admit that I used more often beak and less bill, but there is some difference and yet they are synonymous. I am not going deep into it, but there are many articles explaning the differences. One perhaps more characteristic is that the beak is pointed and the bill is flat.

While searching the net for some answers I came accross the old joke:

A duck goes into the drugstore to buy some chapstick, and the cashier asks how he’s going to pay for it and the duck says, “put it on my bill”. Well the duck has a beak, but the joke won't work if we use that word.

My first example photo is of a sparrow, who got some food.
