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.

A handful of migrants on the land included two Chiffchaffs, the first Firecrest of the year and a Song Thrush. Seawatching was fairly slow with 149 Brent Geese, three Shelduck, 184 Kittiwakes and a Little Gull of interest along with one of the regular Iceland Gulls.

Three Porpoises were feeding offshore.
