Hej, now you're coming close to another bird, Buteo

A wounded buzzard once died in my arms. We found it by the
roadside as we were about to drive in to Lund and decided to
take it with us to the Dept of Zoology. My wife was driving
and
I held the bird. As we neared Lund it made one last struggle
to
escape from my grasp and gave up the ghost.

These days picking up sick birds can be dangerous. :-)

Indeed, but this was twenty years ago, and the bird had probably
been hit by a car.
