Sue had never visited The Greenway, so we took the opportunity of the Metro opening day to break our journey at Dulwich Hill and walked down the Greenway to Hawthorne and catch the light rail back. This worked out very well.
Along the way, we were fortunate to be able to obverse ten Tawny Frogmouths.
