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.

3rd Apr

Very quiet offshore with just a Velvet Scoter, four Red-breasted Mergansers, nine Mediterranean Gulls, 34 Sandwich Terns, seven Common Terns and ten Fulmars of note. Very quiet on the land although a Blackcap was the first of the year.

Eight Porpoises and a Grey Seal were feeding offshore.

Elsewhere, the Penduline Tit showed very well again at ARC and an Alpine Swift made a very brief appearance over the Water Tower in the afternoon.
