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.

2nd Sep

Very quiet with just nine Willow Warblers, 15 Chiffchaffs and three Tree Sparrows of interest.

Two Porpoises were feeding offshore and a Brown Hare was seen in the Desert.

Of note from the moth traps were another Portland Ribbon Waves (so with two a few day days ago, these are 4th-7th Observatory records), an Oak Nycteoline and two Palpita vitrealis. A Birch Shieldbug was also trapped.

The White-winged Black Tern continues to show very well on Burrowes Pit, RSPB.
