Well, if we are looking for terms, what kinds of things does one pluck
in the real world?

Feathers (of a bird while preparing for consumption)
Strings (of an instrument while performing music )
Marks (as in victims of a crime)

I think the term is also used in magic, as one 'plucks things from thin air'...
