Most flighted birds don’t actually have functional penis (ducks are a notable exception). Both the males and females reproduce through their cloaca.

Doesn’t this imply that the flower is polinated by bird cocks. Think about it a bird fucks one flower or starts to before realizing, and then later he fucks annother flower thus spreading the pollen of the first flower.

Plus the first flower might feel a bit jealous if it finds out

No, it just implies that it was adaptive to look like a bird.
It could be because aliens exist and years ago they were like “let’s screw up all the plants in this area for generations” until the leader’s kid saw one that kind of looked like little birds and threw themselves in front of it and said “wait, no, spare this one.”
