Blimey - I've slipped up by missing this one goosey!

I'm more than happy to go along with Marks suggestion of fox scat.

It looks that fresh that I can almost smell it!

Buzzards do vacate their bowels in flight, often as soon as they leave the ground or branch roost site. The tell tale is the uric acid - the white stuff in a birds dropping. Hair is a difficult substance to digest in a birds gut, it's normally disgorged via a pellet but some must go through the system.
