Observation details
Imm. Perched on snag in campground, about 60 ft away. Small buteo, lightish head with pale eyebrow and dark malar stripe. Yellow cere. White from throat to vent with some brown streaking on sides of upper breast, heavier streaking on belly - less in center. Short tail. Knew immediately it was BW, set pack down and got camera but it flew off, short banded tail in flight. Area is along Snake River just before it meets the Columbia, with ponds in the wild area - this bird probably put down by the heavy smoke. 2 hours later I saw a small short-tailed raptor up in tree - so smoky pics are not real clear. .
