Somethings attacking my Begonia ?

I don’t know what’s going on, but yesterday we found some flowers on the ground and now today there’s another any ideas what could be happening? Looks like snapped of the stem but I don’t know how

    Maybe birds landed in them,  they’re quite small plants.  Unless you have little fingers around🧐
    In the 3rd photo, you have a female flower with a seed pod behind,  if you nip that off it will encourage the plant to grow bigger and produce more flowers.

    Nip off the flower or the pod as well? Those 2 big bumps? Just below them?

    That’s right,  the pod is the seed pod.
