Full Title: 'The Pied Piper of Raccoons' mysteriously charms nearly two dozen animals by playing his flute in a New York forest.

Native American power flute. If you like racoons, just take a boom box into the forest!

(I know that horses love the Scottish Highland Bagpipes and come galloping.)

I knew a priest in college. He was very old. Each day he would go out and sit on a bench in the middle of campus. As he walked very slowly to his bench, he would whistle. As he did, the squirrels would come from everywhere. He would sit down, put down his cane and pull out a bag of peanuts from his coat pocket. As each squirrel came up his cane, he would literally hand the squirrel a peanut. The squirrel would take it from the old priest’s hand and run away with the peanut.

So you tell me. Did the squirrels come to hear the old priest whistle?

He spread corn out on the ground. They hear that flute and go eat. It is the dinner bell.

He has trained them to come eat at the sound of the flute. Good way to get rabies.

Cute but pesky and destructive critters. I’m surprised haven’t yet stolen his flute.

That’s pretty adorable! Who knew raccoons liked music?

Many years ago, maybe early 80’s I saw a clip on tv. Maybe it was the news, maybe it was that show about funniest home videos. Video was of an old chinese man in china going out to a hilltop in the middle of nowhere and holding his arms out to either side and I think he sang or chanted. Literally hundreds of birds came out of nowhere and landed on his arms. He had no food. They were just stopping to say hi I guess. I looked for it once on the internet but could not find it. It looked like the real deal to me.
