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.

20th Feb

A quiet day with very little to be seen. Seawatching produced very little with just five Pintail and a Fulmar being the only notables. A check of the land produced a small increase in Blackbirds as well as two Song Thrushes and two Firecrests. 

Elsewhere, 17 Cattle Egrets still at Cockles Bridge and a first-winter Caspian Gull was on nearby Burrowes Pit. At Walland Marsh, the Bewick's Swan flock increased to 37.
