Update

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.
You can still support the Obs by using Give as you Live when shopping online.

16th Feb

Another thoroughly miserable day with Storm Dennis arriving with a vengeance in the early hours and then heavy rain all day. The only bird of note was a single adult Mediterranean Gull among the large numbers of birds feeding along the tideline.
Thankfully the Seawatch and Patch hides survived the storm but another tile came of the Observatory roof.
