The Observatory can accommodate up to 9 people in two dormitories, you need to bring your own sleeping bags and it is self-catering. As well as Birdwatchers, we welcome people from many areas of interest including Moths, Butterflies, Bugs and Beetles or just a general interest in Nature and the local environment. Please forward any Dungeness recording area records to the Warden.

17th Oct

With some of the regular observers cracking and diverting to Spurn for the day there was less coverage than normal but those that were present still turned up a few bits and pieces. Notable among these were an Osprey feeding at the Long Pits, a summer-plumaged Black-throated Diver flying west and a Short-eared Owl in the Desert.
