Foxy and the hen Agda
In memory of Agda, 2010
 
This picture taken 2010-08-19. I got a friend at the open air museum, Gammlia. It was a hen and her name was Agda.
This is Agda. Picture taken 2010-08-12.
Here Agda is with the rooster and the other hens.

Another picture of the hens family.
Agda was at Gammlia last year too. This picture with her and the rooster  was taken 2009-07-02.
2010-08-12. I bought Sami bread in the bakery house. Then Agda went interested.
2010-08-12. Agde jumped up on the little stage there I was sitting and started to beg for bread. It was so cute. But this bread was a little too leathery for hens. I promised Agda to take bread with me that was more dry and crumbly.
Here the children had a lot of fun with the hens and the rooster. But I  cut the children because you may not put up people on the net  asking.
2010-08-17. I had bread with he and put small crumbs beside Ove. Then Agda went up on the stairs to Ove.
2010-08-17.  Aw, Ove has a laptop with him. Then he can see all the hens in the whole world on the Internet :-)
2010-08-17. Agda liked the bread crumbs.
2010-08-17. Agda is wondering what Ove is writing on the laptop :)
2010-08-17. Now the rooster Tage and the other hens also were interesting.
2010-08-17. He, he, cyber hens :-)
2010-08-17. Here they were standing in line for food.
2010-08-17. It seems like Agda is asking Ove if she may send an e-mail to other hens.
2010-08-17. A dove went flying down from the roof when he saw there was food on the ground.
2010-08-17. Agda searching for food.
2010-08-18. Agda was often in front of the bakery house hoping to get some bread crumbs. Here she get some crumbs from me.
2010-08-18. Do you want more?
2010-08-18. Of course she wanted more.
2010-08-19. I was sitting on the stage again.
2010-08-19. Agda was so interested and was looking at my hand.
2010-08-19. I gave her bread. Here you can see how the bread is coming down to Agda who is waiting for it. (middle of the picture)
2010-08-19. Now the rooster Tage also came to the stage.
2010-08-19. I felt so amused.
2010-08-19. Now both were begging for bread.
2010-08-19. I was talking to Tage and Agda.
2010-08-19. Tage and Agda. A beautiful couple.
2010-08-19. Now the bread is gone and I will go home. But we'll meet again tomorrow.
2010-08-20. The animal keeper told me that Agda had passed away this morning in an accident. This was so sad. I was mourning in the woods on my way home.
Agda is in heaven. She always was a brave hen. Not afraid for anything. She was friendly and liked to be with people. And she got everyone smiling.
I will always remember my friend Agda.
I wrote this website to honour Agda. And now all the hens and roosters in the world can read about this brave and friendly hen.
