Can someone explain the Birds and the Bees to me? I get its related to sex somehow but was never told the story or where it got started or how come a bird and insect?

I remember I felt I missed something because my mom explained the specifics of menstruation to me and school went into more detail about sex and reproduction. Despite what sitcoms were telling me, no one ever sat me down and said anything about birds or bees. I guess I hoped there was a weird pre-written speech parents awkwardly tried to recall when their kids got to a certain age.
