Simple.  He was killed by one of those gigantic, eco-friendly windmills.

They just unclip it when the bird lands.

It looks like it might be a white-tailed sea eagle, based at least in part that the shadow seems to show a wedge-shaped tail at about 1:20?

It's a trained bird carrying a camera.  I've done the same thing with a few of my own birds.
