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.

9th Aug

A Heron, a Buzzard and 13 Sand Martins flew through and 20 Willow Warblers were scattered across the Point.

Our sixth record of Gypsy Moth was the highlight of an otherwise very poor moth night.

A Common Frog was found in the Observatory garden - a relatively uncommon amphibian in the area.
