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.

25th Sep

A quieter day offshore with five Teal, 17 Arctic Skuas and singles of Sooty and Manx Shearwaters. A Merlin also arrived. Passage overhead included 1,000 Swallows, 50 Siskins and seven Reed Buntings of note.

Six Porpoises and singles of Common and Grey Seals were feeding offshore.

Another Convolvulus Hawkmoth was the highlight from the single moth trap I put out.
