Wexford birding (1 Viewer)

Reported a garden warbler at Hook on Monday, June 5th to irishbirding.com. This seems to be the only ever June record reported on this website for Wexford! Could that be right??

Looking at the old Atlas maps, there are breeding (?) records for south Wexford in the 60's-70's:

(Click on 'Maps' and then move the distribution slider). None in the last Atlas period, but it just be overlooked?
 
Could be a very late migrant as winds were particularly poor this spring I think. A (singing) bird was seen on Hook a couple of weeks before, but I don't know the exact location.
