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.

28th Nov

Light NW winds and clear conditions meant for a fairly slow seawatch with just two Mediterranean Gulls, 55 Red-throated Divers, two Great Northern Divers west and the first-year Glaucous Gull and an adult Caspian Gull feeding at the boats. The only notable birds on the land were a Merlin, five Chiffchaffs, a Dartford Warbler and 1360 Starling coming in.

Four Grey Seals were feeding offshore.
