Obligatory note that if you're from the US you are probably picturing a different bird than parent saw.
would you care to expound on that?
In the US, buzzard is pretty much always slang for a turkey vulture. The common buzzard in Europe/Asia is a different bird entirely.

Funnily enough in France:
- buzzard is "buse" (mostly - although not limited to - Buteo[1])
- there's an unrelated yet identically pronounced "busard" (Circus[2]).
- EDIT: oh, and "balbuzard" (Pandion[3] a.k.a ospreys)
