Tagged individual has notable limp. For the sake of a bit of speculative fun I can see a very hazy '93' when I zoom in on my computer, but I could be completely wrong....

List provided by Chris at the end of last catching season is as follows. 93 is certainly a possibility.
December 2017 catch: P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6, P7
January 2018 catch: P0, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99
In addition there were four birds flagged in January 2017: R1, R2, P8, P9

Ah well it's in the ball park, maybe my eyes aren't playing tricks on me... :-)

It looks more like a P3 to me.

but https://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Sightings/Details/3768785 with geolocator looks like it could be P3 or P5.
I'm just following up which ones had geolocators - my records suggest P0, 99, 98, 97, and 96

This one is not P3, P5, or 93, as they all have geolocators. We'll have to await another photo, but exciting nonetheless. Who's up for the challenge?!
