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.

27th June

Little to report in the way of birds except for at least 31 Mediterranean Gulls offshore in increasingly windy conditions.

Moths continue to provide some interest with an example of the scarce Yponomeuta irrorella along with another Acrobasis repandana and singles of Pine Hawkmoth, Beautiful Hook-tip and Oak Nycteoline of note.

Pine Hawkmoth Sphinx pinastri and Yponomeuta irrorella   Dungeness   27th June 2020
