This clue could be a double definition.

'a little kiss' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'a bird?' is the second definition.

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for peck that I've seen before include "Perfunctory kiss" , "Strike with beak" , "Eat just a bit" , "Gregory" , "Bite lightly; a dry measure" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
