"Bernice"

Just to get this out front, Bernice is our favorite. She is friendly, she likes tolerates being held, she's very smart, and she's a survivor!

One day we heard a squabble outside and went to investigate. Upon opening the door, we saw Bernice being held to the ground by a hawk. The hawk immediate flew away, but it did serious damage. Luckily, Bernice recovered from the incident. After a few moments of shock, she jumped up and walked off. We did give her some wound care and made sure she was recovering, but needless to say it was a traumatic experience for all.

Our inspiration in naming Bernice came from the good people at https://sowtheland.com/. We enjoyed watching their Youtube content while embarking on our own homestead journey.

Update (Dec 2023): Sadly, Bernice is no longer with us. Something - we think a hawk - managed to catch her this time.  😭 😭

We have cherished the nearly-four years of love and humor this girl shared with us!
