Move your stockpiles inside if you haven't already. Then line your halls with stonefall traps. They're really cheap to set up and it's fun to read the combat logs detailing how the buzzards get hit in the head and their bones cave into their brain tissue. One line of traps isn't enough to kill a buzzard usually, so I recommend many, many rows of them. Also train lots of war dogs, they seem to love killing buzzards as much as I do. Between my traps and my dogs I haven't had a buzzard get anywhere near my food stockpile in many dwarf years.

Yeah I had buzzards, on my first 2010 fortress. Then mined out a spot, put all my stuff in there, and put Hatches between it and the surface, worked pretty well. Then I had problems with camels but that's another story.
