Bing Aerial metadata in QGIS

I am using Bing Aerial imagery within QGIS through the OpenLayers plugin. How can I find the dates of the images that are within the map canvas?

A:

Unfortunately using Bing via the OpenLayersPlugin does not supply any meaningful metadata such as acquisition dates.
May I refer you to the following thread:
