Herd Of Grazing Cows Rush To Listen To Accordion Music

Most of us have heard of the famous children's story about the Pied Piper. In this German folklore, there was a Pied Piper who helps lead the rats out of Hamelin, Germany with his magic flute. This story was thought to be only that, a story, but it seems that it may have some merit. Animals can be fond of many different sounds and noises, so much so that they could even get attracted to them. That is exactly the case in this video as a herd of cows come over to hear accordion music played by this man in Garmisch, Germany. It's so crazy how they truly enjoy the music!Show more

Who would have thought that something like this could actually happen! Looks like that old story about the Piper could have had some facts in it after all. This man is a modern day Pied Piper, albeit he is playing the accordion and is attracting cows, not rats. Nonetheless, this makes for one entertaining and interesting video. The cows are grazing carelessly on the huge, beautiful and green pasture. The wind is friendly blowing like it wants to whistle a secret to the cows. There are many of them, a big herd of peaceful cows minding their own business on the pasture. All of a sudden, their peace and quiet is beautifully interrupted by a man who appears to play an accordion. He was passing by the pasture when he stopped in order to say hi to these cows.

His greeting is the most interesting one, since the cows are really captivated by the sound of his music. Music is a medicine for the soul, it gives us energy and power and it makes our rainy days easier to get through. Whether that is true for people, who would have said that it is true for cows? As the video shows, the man stands next to the pasture fence, playing a mellow song, attracting the cows from the distance that can be seen standing fixedly wondering where on Earth is the music coming from. When they notice the man, they hurry to say hello and their delight at hearing the music can’t go unnoticed. All of a sudden, they leave the grazing and just like pupils in front of their headmaster, they line up enjoying the sound of the accordion. What an unusual sight to witness!

They hop and run like happy little bunnies, shaking the bells around their necks, adding to the melody. The man is obviously satisfied because he fulfilled his mission to entertain the cows. Even he himself couldn’t expect such an outturn! While the cows are taking pleasure in this live performance for free, we can hear the lady behind the camera giggling delightfully. She is not alone, we grinned from ear to ear, too while watching the video!
