Gracefully catch python Exception in Iterator next

I am using PyGithub to scrape some repositories, though I get some error while iterating through the search pages.

def scrape_interval(self, interval):
    for repo_number, repo in self.search(interval):
        code...

def search(self, interval):
    try:
        iterator = enumerate(self.github.search_repositories(query="Laravel created:" + interval))
    except:
        print.warning("Going to sleep for 1 hour. The search API hit the limit")
        time.sleep(3600)
        iterator = self.search(interval)
    return iterator

As you can see I try to catch errors when creating the iterator in def search. But the error is thrown on line for repo_number, repo in self.search(interval): so that is at some point when the iterator get next item?

What are my options to make these errors catchable? I would preferably avoid wrapping the whole for loop in a try clause, rather manage it during the iteration itself.

For reference about the error in itself:
