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.

27th Feb

A blustery, murky and horrible day with winds originating mostly from SSW resulting in seawatching giving any worthwhile action. Notable birds included 198 Brent Geese, seven Tufted Ducks, two Velvet Scoters, four Mediterranean Gulls, 209 Red-throated Divers and 18 Fulmars. The only noted passerine movement was an increase in Linnets with 13 around the Power Station. 

Elsewhere, the flock of 17 Cattle Egrets were still at Cockles Bridge.
