    I was under the impression that male birds do not possess a protruding organ but indeed have a hole too, hence ‘no cock’.

      didn’t think i would be googling “peacock genitalia” today. anyway, you are right. i was confused because I know that ducks have penises, but as I just found out, ducks are actually an exception in the bird world. most birds just kind of rub their holes together. this is sometimes called “cloacal kiss”, which is really funny.
