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.

3rd July

A hint of autumn passage with a Little Ringed Plover, three Yellow Wagtails and two Grey Wagtails passing through. 

The moth traps produced our fourth Light Crimson Underwing of the summer, a Green Silver-lines, a Plumed Fan-foot, a Small Mottled Willow and the rare pyralids, Acrobasis tumidane and Catoptria verellus.

Four Small Red-eyed Damselflies were found at the Long Pits and a Norfolk Hawker were seen.
