Thanks for your replies!
Its even not allowed to take feathers of raptors, as well as to pick up feathers lying on the fields and woods. Its as calling a bird like this your possess. When we were boys it was no problem collecting feathers of any kind. But today there is the meaning that everyone hunts this animals. This is in Germany called "Mäusebussard", translated directly "Micebuzzard" (but this won`t be the correct translation). Look at this: http://www.brodowski-fotografie.de/beobachtungen/maeusebussard.html
i think the birds had been touching each one of the wire and hihg voltage was their end. One of the birds wings is only hanging on the shoulders sinew, the bone is broken.
Some years ago I saw a fight between two buzzards on the fields floor We were only 10 yards away and they didn`t recognize us. But no cam. This was one of moments, when you would like to have one in your hands. It took 2 or 3 minutes and then everyone made his way.
Regards Uwe
