Cooper's Hawk, immature, banded

At dinner time this evening this hawk was sitting on the fat cable line that runs across the road from our house. I have zoomed my Canon S3 IS as far as possible with the digital zoom on. The photos are pretty blurry and noisy, but this is the best I can do with that camera and lens and some tweaking in Photoshop. I see it is a banded bird and must try to find out what that band means.

I have located a place to report the siting of this banded bird. It's an immature Cooper's Hawk and seems to have only one leg... the one with the band on it. I am not sure of the color of the band. It was probably black with the sun glinting off it to make it appear white in some of my snap shots.
