Birds Of These Days Valentine

Is it possible in this city
She has a nest nearby
That perpendicular bird
Every morning coming to seize
Grasshoppers for her breakfast 
Flying some back for her brood
And because you planted honeysuckle
There's a faithful hummingbird's
Sudden coming sudden going 
And in the distance a dove
With her constant mourning 
And late last night is it true
Under the moon growing full
While the earth was very still 
I swear I heard an owl
Ask where I was and who
