How to remove an image in pygame?

I'm working on a game and I have some problems working with images. I have loaded a few images . loading them and using screen.blit() was okay like below: 

img1 = pygame.image.load("leaf.png")
img1 = pygame.transform.scale(img1, (25,25))
leaf = img1.get_rect()
leaf.x = random.randint(0, 570)
leaf.y =  random.randint(0, 570)

but I don't know how to remove them in an if statement like this for example:

if count == 1:
...

and I though maybe there is no way and I should draw a rectangle on the image to disappear it. Also I don't know how to use screen.fill() while I don't want the other images to get disappeared. Is there any other way?

you can use screen.fill() for that following is an example that shows how to do it:

import pygame
import time
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((500,500))
screen.fill((255,255,255))#white
img = pygame.image.load('img.png')
img = pygame.transform.scale(img,(25,25))
img2 = pygame.image.load('bubble.png')
img2 = pygame.transform.scale(img,(25,25))
screen.blit(img,(250,250))
screen.blit(img2,(350,250))
pygame.display.update()
running = True
while running:
    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            running = False
        screen.fill((255,255,255))
        screen.blit(img2, (350, 250))
        pygame.display.update()
        time.sleep(1)
        screen.blit(img, (255,255))
        pygame.display.update()

for making any type of animation om pygame you have to redraw every thing including the background

You can fill individual images, since they are pygame Surfaces.

First, what I would do is I would put something like this after defining the leaf's x/y:

leaf.image = img1

Then, I would create a color variable called transparent:

transparent = (0, 0, 0, 0)

The first 3 numbers, as you might know, represent RGB color values. The last number is the alpha (transparency) value of a color. 0 is completely invisible.

Finally, I would add this code to make the leaf completely transparent:

leaf.image.fill(transparent)

This makes the leaf transparent without making every other image in your window disappear. Hope this helped!
