As for the creature I killed, I took it to be a kind of hawk, its colour and beak resembling it, but it had no talons or claws more than common. Its flesh was carrion, and fit for nothing.
Quant à l'animal que je tuai, je le pris pour une sorte de faucon; il en avait la couleur et le bec, mais non pas les serres ni les éperons; sa chair était puante et ne valait absolument rien.
