MEHER CENTER FISHERMAN

 
In these early days, before the Center was open to the public, the lake was teeming with rather large fish. Seabirds would come and dive in the lake to catch their meals.

One day, one of the caretakers and a local workman were standing in the compound area when they noticed a large seabird dive into the lake and emerge clutching a big fish in his claws. As the bird flew by overhead, the local man drawled, "Wish I could get a fish that easy."

Just then, the bird lost its grip on the fish, and it landed at the workman's feet.
