Mainly Warringah Council I presume, possibly also Pittwater who border the
lagoon from Deep Creek east to the entrance.
Well they have done "jigger all" I was down there yesterday and counted
about 50 farm duck/ Mallard mix-ups near the boat ramp at the east end of
the lagoon. Probably more elsewhere around the lagoon.
