Necco the Inca dove makes his "no hope" call
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- This is Necco, our cuddly, feisty pet Inca dove, making the "no hope" call this species is known for. He's the ultimate rescue bird; in 2012 a family in Austin incubated his egg and raised him. We adopted him at about four weeks old and took him back to Dallas, where Incas are very uncommon, so he has never seen another dove of his own species. But he still makes the call, thankfully only for brief periods throughout the day or we'd be crazy by now!

HE GRADUALLY BECOMES A SPHERE AS THE VIDEO PROGRESSES
Hummingbirds will orbit around him... like satellites.
Hector Cepeda I LOVE this happy visual, thank you :)

When I first had Necco and showed him to my mom, he was sitting in my hand, and he fluffed out to the point where my mom, with a note of concern in her voice, asked, “how much fatter is he going to GET?” Like he might explode... 😂😂😂
My dad always told me they are saying "feo tú" in Spanish. It means "you ugly"
These are also known as Mexican doves so...
What mean little birds, lol
Lol. My mom still tells us that.
@@WeatherIsFun hhnmnn?
@@JM-bi6ue Whenever my mom hears those doves, she gets mad and says, "you're ugly" but in Spanish.
He calls me ugly all day but I don't mind :)
it's so fluffy!!!
YOSSSSSS
Necco is very special! Every time I am taking care of an Inca dove I play this video and they start to sing too, it doesn’t happen with other videos. I’m very thankful for this video they bring happiness to hopeless birds, thankfully every single one has survived ❤️🕊
That is wonderful to hear! Necco passed away last year, right before his tenth birthday. He lived a long and happy like. Cheers to you for taking care of birds that need help, and especially little Inca doves. Life is very quiet without Necco, we miss him. But now we can travel and leave the house more, so we're going to wait until we have time to devote to another bird before we adopt another one. Love and best wishes from New Mexico! If you're taking care of any birds right now, please give them a cuddle for me.
Sir, how fluffy should we make this bird?
Yes.
That’s one of my favorite birds cause there so small and cute cooing😊
This is going to sound funny, but when I was small my mom would always tell me that they were saying, "feo tú" which transaltes to "you're ugly." I hear them every day here in Michoacán México and since I always have a barrel full with water to water my plants, about 20 come to drink water every day.
I love it! The Inca doves are one of my favorite birds in the wild. As a matter of fact....I have a wild Inca dove behind my fence listening to Necco and answering his call. Fabulous! As I play Necco's call, the wild Inca dove keeps moving in closer to my yard. Very cool.
The most adorable god damn birds in the universe.
I hear these birds all the time in Peru
Can't wait to here them again
Going back in 3 weeks
I hope you have a great visit to Peru :)
I have a rescued Inca named Squeaky. I found him when he was about a week old after he fell out of a high nest that I couldn't get access to. He also had an injured leg and limps a bit, but he does ok with it. I decided to see if I could raise him up and hoped his leg would get better, but his injury prevents him from having complete mobility. He's also strongly bonded with me now too, so there's that. I quickly learned a lot about how to raise birds online and now he has a flock of diamond dove buddies that I bought as company for him. Luckily, I'm semi-retired and work for myself, but I quickly learned that keeping a baby bird alive and happy means that any social life and sleep patterns you had will go to hell for a couple of weeks. It's definitely not something to take lightly!
Since Incas are slightly biggest than diamonds, he rules the flock, but outside of the odd squab squabbles everyone gets along fairly well. He also does the patented Inca call, but his diamond relatives drown him out and are a lot more talkative. When people call my house, the uninitiated usually ask me what the jungle noises are in the background. those tiny bird bodies can sure crank up the volume!
I was wondering if the 2 species could cross into a FrankenDiamondInca, but they must be too far apart genetically to make it happen. At least Squeak is happy to give it a shot and his diamond GF, Bishi, is always up for some action! I did call Game and Fish later on and explained the situation, but they said that unless there were problems (and there never were) I should just go ahead and keep the band together. Now I am the dove whisperer...

HOW EXCELLENT!! How exciting to find another person with a bonded Inca dove! Necco is currently perched on my head, giving me what feels like a hair weave. He was too feisty to live at the rehabilitation aviary, the first thing he did was fly over to a cuckoo to try and mate with it. After a few days even ducks were running from him, and that’s how he ended up back with us. He’s the cuddliest bird we’ve ever had by far, it’s ridiculous how close he likes to get. His favorite place to sit is in my husband’s collar, he’s just along for the ride.
Hilarious that Squeaky has a GF! Necco likes shoes, that’s all I’m going to say. I’d love to see a photo or video of him sometime, am so glad you shared your story. Little Squeaky!
Yeah, when Incas are pissed off or in the mood, not a whole lot will dissuade them! They can be so sweet and then very aggro on anything or anyone nearby who does not get with the program. And once their motors get going, they can be quite the blabberbeaks! Necco looks like quite to sweetie and it's awesome that he has 'accepted' your husband as part of the flock that is under his protection. I love watching their orange irises wildly contract and expand when they get excited about something. The tail flapping thing is another fun thing and I can get Squeak to flare it by saying something like 'Look at the tail on that dove!' The more loudly I say it, the more he flips it around! Cool birds! If you ever decide to get into any other birds, diamonds can work well with Incas, but Necco might initially be very territorial at first.
Great talking with you and I'll check out some of your other vids, like the one I can see on my sidebar (Necco the cuddly Inca Dove). Cheers!
Aww! How cute, Pablo!! I JUST LOVE THESE. SWEET LITTLE BIRDS (doves in general)! 😁😁😁😁😀😀😀😀😄😄😄😄💖💖💖
I'm cute! I'm cute!
Can't unhear it.
I could see where that would get annoying, but he's so cute.
Yeah. Where I'm from in Mexico, you can hear them all day long every day single day. And there are a LOT of Inca Doves in my area.
But they are very cute and I find them relaxing.
En México y Guatemala lo conocemos como tortola o tortolita, son aves muy hermosas y carismaticas!. ❤🐦
Tienes razón, ¡tienen mucha personalidad! Los amo :)
@@TrishAndersonAqui no brasil, essas rolinhas são conhecidas
Como rolinhas-fogo-apagou, e o nome vem do canto da ave,
O que parece dizer: "FOGO APAGOU🚒, FOGO APAGOU🚒."
what a cutie!
I have Inca doves nesting in my live oak. I live near Tyler Tx. They are so beautiful. As for as know, they have never nested at my house before. I always have mocking birds nesting. I so enjoy watching them raise their young.
Happy to report we have these great little doves in central Louisiana for 5-6 years. The Audubon map needs a serious update!
Aw, buddy! It's okay! There is hope!
coo ~ coo
How cute! Unfortunately, my location is nowhere near the range of the Inca Dove, so I have to stick to the Mourning Dove, which I picture saying "Cheeseburger, Mmm mmm mmm"
Incredible creature , so cute too amazing !
"Go poop. Go poop. Go poop" can't unhear it now.
OMG we've had him for eight years, how did I miss that?! He's asleep for the night but the minute he starts singing tomorrow It Will Begin. Now that the days are getting shorter, his singing time only totals about seven hours a day of Go Poop.. LMAO :)
Lmao. I can't unhear it xD
Its just coo coo Now that this person said no hope, I dont think I can get it out of my head
If you read some of the other comments you can replace the “no hope” with other phrases, but they might not be any better 😁
Literally an army of them in cities in Mexico but in towns only a few.
I like the visual of an army of Ince doves :) 🤩
Their official range covers all of Mexico but stops in the western part of Louisiana. I'm hear to tell you they have now made it all the way eastward to the Gulf Coast of Mississippi near Bay St. Louis. Their call is unmistakable, though I have not actually laid eyes on one yet.
Happy to hear their range has expanded! They do have a very distinctive call, easy to recognize. I’m always happy to hear it in Dallas.
They're also called Mourning Doves, but that isn't a 'No Hope' or mourning call at all! It's cute and cool 'Cooo Cooo!" Or "Hoooo Hooo!" Wow. And it's so high-pitched too. Awesome, wholesome and cute!
He’s smaller than a mourning dove, only about half the size. I had a beloved mourning dove when I first got Necco and had to keep them separated or he would get pecked like crazy. I think Necco’s call is cheerful too, he sings every morning for long stretches at a time 😍
@@TrishAnderson Awwwww! Cute cute. I love that.
this bird is very common where I live. they always make nests,
although they are quite shy
🥰 awww
What a crispy lil tortilla
Over here we have many of these birds. And I really love that call they make.
i love you all birds
I always though of it as "yeah nope"
Ha! And now I will too, at times. Like when I’m on the phone and trying to get him to quiet down 😂
Dad? Is that you? Are you back with the worms?
look at that fluff
Go floof! Go Floof !Go Floof! Go floof! go floof!
i don't call it no hope. in fact i find it very peaceful relaxing and meditative sound. I don't see them as much any more. as the city expands the sunflowers which they eat get cut down.
I think it's peaceful too. Even when he's sitting in my collar singing right in my ear. It's the sound of a happy bird :)
There's hope!!!

It's not a no hope. I'll give you a reading from the Florentine Codex:
There are some little birds in this land that are called cocohtli, and all the spaniards call them little doves; they are not as big as the ones found in Castille, but they share their color; they are smallish, with blonde wings; they look smooth, with colorful and small feet; they are called cocohtli because when they sing they say coco, coco; they eat herb seeds and chia; they only marry once, and when their partner dies, they are always weeping alone, saying: coco, coco. It is said that their meat helps against sadness. Jealous women are fed these birds to help forget their jealousy, and also to the men.
Ottmar555 how beautiful! Definitely better than “no hope”
Thank you!!!
I just recently rescued a wild female Inca dove, and i read that its unhealthy if it doesn't coo. I don't know if its true or not, but hearing another coo made her coo.
I am so sorry I didn't see this message until now. But so happy that your rescue dove responded to Necco's call. I hope she made a full recovery, but even if she didn't make it, cheers to you for taking care of her.
😍😍 CUTENESS OVERLOAD 😍😍
I love this bird.
Nice! I miss hearing that call. They've all but disappeared from Tucson.
Hope Necco gets to experience courtship some day.
He's imprinted on humans, so he courts... me. Not an ideal situation, but he seems to be happy. We tried to set him up with a female Inca but he attacked her :(
It gets more interesting.....now the wild Inca dove behind my fence, is doing his territorial call when I play Necco's call. They are definitely responsive .
That's awesome!! Thank you for sharing your experience. Incas are getting harder to find in some areas. You're lucky to have them close by, they're such beautiful and entertaining little birds.
Beautiful. My family rescued one and now he lives with us. Armandito - that's how we named him - is really bonded with us, he is lovely.
Please give Armandito a good scratching for me, may you be blessed with years of happiness with him! We miss our little Necco. He passed away last year, but he had a long and happy life, he was ten years old. The house is very quiet now.
@@TrishAnderson I'm really sorry to hear that. Necco will live in your heart and in the heart of all us who knew him ♥️. When we found Armandito, we looked for videos and Necco was the first in appearing after our search; baby Armandito immediately reacted to Necco's song. It was lovely. Greetings from Mexico ♥️
Sounds like Paul Paul
Paul Paul.
Back in January i rescued a baby dove, now im teaching her to make this call with this video and gets extremely happy everytime it plays, finally, today she stopped making her chick noises and made this call, it's very exciting. Her name is Pipi Cucu Birdemic Quark.
What a long name for a tiny bird, lol! Cheers to Pipi Cucu Birdemic Quark! Wishing you both health and happiness :) :)
That's the Walmart Dove WAHL-MART 🎶
If a sheep were a bird
He smells a bit like a little sheep sometimes 🙊
En algunos lugares de México escuchamos "Feo tú"..
😆
I love these guys I've seen them alot in Mexico City they look so silly walking around with their chubby bodies and tiny heads
oh i hear it
Im a mexican and everywhere i go i see his face
I LOVE them so much! In 2021 we moved to New Mexico, high up in the mountains, and there are no Inca doves here. We miss them. I hope they make you smile :) 🕊
😂”no hope”!😂
He Clearly wants a Yoo Hoo !
Oooooh I love those things, I discovered them at a sweltering bug-infested church camp in the 80s in Texas. The Yoo-Hoos were the only thing I enjoyed, I spent all my money on them, I think they may have been my salvation :)
@@TrishAnderson_NM
Jesus saved u from a church camp 😊
Cute li'l thing.
super☺

one funny dove
It Is beautiful! Recently I had a dove like you, my father found it hurts, we keep safe in our house for about 3-4 days, but died yesterday :(, I don't know what happened, it looks better, I'm so confused and sad
I’m so very sorry :(
@@TrishAnderson_NM thank you!
Why is that pine cone cooing 🤔

They are wonderful little birds. Please give her a kiss/pet for me 💕
Aún la conservas?
Se dice que pueden vivir hasta 14 años o mas

I love this interpretation! 💕 Here’s to 2021, taking time to appreciate the little things in life, and more love and positive energy. Cheers to you!
It's the holy spirit reincarnated.
After an awful day with family turmoil related to my Mom's recent passing and never seeing doves in my yard, I came home and noticed a pair of these. Thank you for making the message positive. No hope for a dove is the exact opposite of what they symbolize.
It's more like hoohoo but you gotta purse your lips and let out a soft whistle, that's I respond back to them.
If their are no Inca doves, around trying getting him or her, diamond dove, to keep the bird some companionship. Then at least he would have some type of hope when cooing
that's exactly my wife's
It is what you think it is.
Let animals live free
“No Hope?” I do t hear it. Does anyone hear it?
Every once in awhile I hear it, usually when I'm having a bad day. When I first got Necco and started researching his species, I read somewhere that the pioneers and early settlers in the southwest US named it the "no hope" call. I believe it - surviving and settling out there must have been a total kick in the pants.
But I also read that travelers followed Inca doves to find water sources, so they may have ended up helping people stay alive :)
Que comen disculpa? Tengo una resctada
I make this sound too when I'm on dating apps.
😂
¿Alguien sabe cuál es la función de ese canto?
Muchas gracias por sus respuestas.
Es su llamado, cantan para buscar individuos de su especie
Loved your vídeo! Also, do you know what they eat, I rescued one but I don't know what they eat
Thank you! Black oil sunflower seeds are very good, high nutrition and most doves LOVE them. Necco eats sunflower hearts, finch seed mix fromPet Supplies Plus, and Zupreem pellets. Also, spray millet is a favorite. Good luck with your little rescue guy! If you have questions about care, rehab, release etc, check out PigeonTalk.biz online, they’re a huge help. I’m rooting for the little guy, glad you reached out :)
Has he find his mate yet? I hope he did.
Yes, because he's imprinted on people, I'm his mate. It's not ideal, but it works for him. I try to spend as much time with him as I can so he doesn't get lonely. He still sings all day long, and he'll be nine this year :)
I found an Inca dove and bought finch food and a peanut suet cake. I'll wait a few days to see if it eats that? What do you feed yours? Thank you
Finch food is great. By the way, if he's a baby or an injured adult he should be taken to a local rehab center. If it's a baby & bonds to you you'll have a lifelong friend but a very confused bird; Necco thinks he's a person! I had to get a permit from the state (TX) to even keep him, he's considered an educational bird now and spends most of his time at TWRC in Houston. Good luck with the little guy.
Interesting that I got recommended this today, just after the election
Why is Necco cooing his "no hope" call? Is he upset, for some reason?
No, it's just his song, he sings it when he's happy. His territory and excited calls sound like he's scolding us.
Why does Necco make that call? Is it that he's upset about something? I don't get it...
James Shaler
He sings like this when he’s happy, which is nearly all day now that he’s grown up. I read somewhere that the early settlers of the west were the ones to make the “No Hope” comparison. Makes sense to me, it must have been a grueling journey for the settlers. Hearing that call all day... “no hope, no hope” must’ve been a real kick in the pants.
What’s up with the little fella?
He's doing well, still sings his no hope song every morning!
@@TrishAnderson I am glad to hear that.
Give to me
no lol
What does that call mean?
Hes calling for a gf?
It’s his territory song, he sings every morning and throughout the day. Sometimes while one of us is holding him he’ll start singing. It’s especially funny when he sits on my shoulder and starts singing right in my ear, it’s pretty loud. I don’t mind, though. In spite of his song sounding like “no hope”, it is actually a song of contentment.
@@TrishAnderson aaw..sweet bird..so beautiful too❤
