Is there any way to determine the date the Birds Eye photograph was taken?

"There is no day information for the imagery. The imagery is usually captured over a month or two and then stiched together. This means that a single image could be made up of multiple images captured on different days. Bing maps only provides date ranges for imagery through a rest service. There was a Silverlight app on Bing.com/maps a while ago but Silverlight and map apps has since been removed from that site" -Ricky Brundritt, Microsoft

If you just want to find when an aerial image was taken use the Imagery Metadata map app on bing.com/maps: http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&cp=51.538612~-0.067500&lvl=4&dir=0&sty=r&app=60526&FORM=LMLTCC -Ricky Brundritt, Microsoft
