Buzzard is a 40 keys ergonomic split keyboard. The layout is inspired by the [Architeuthis dux](https://github.com/tapioki/cephalopoda/tree/main/Architeuthis%20dux) with pinky, ring, index, and inner columns splayed at 15, 5, 0, -5, -5 degrees. However, it as two additional pinky keys and a modified thumb cluster.
