Bee-eater - 1994

Vagrant

Mathew (1894) refers to two occurrences of single Bee-eaters, one picked up "long dead" at the coast, undated, and one killed at Johnston in about 1854. Lockley et al. (1949) added a record of three perched on telephone wires near Milford Haven on 13 May 1896.

There have been two further records: two birds at Dale on 31 May 1958 and one at West Hook, Marloes, on 16 May 1965.
