The Never Bird is a character described in J. M. Barrie's original Peter and Wendy novel in 1911. She makes an appearance in the tenth chapter where she rescues Peter after he loses the power of flight and is stranded on Marooner's Rock.

Here she works for Captain Hook and is ordered to steal Izzy's twister hoop so that he may replace his destroyed ship wheel. After she successfully retrieves it, she betrays Hook and takes it herself to Never Ever Peak Mountain where she resides. Izzy and her crew reach the mountain and finds that she has used the hoop to create a nest. Using some vines, Izzy replaces it and so becomes a friend of the Never Bird.

Before they can, Hook arrives, caging the Never Bird and stealing the egg. The captain is thwarted by Jake freeing the Never Bird and saving the egg. The search continues until a pair of hummingbirds appear and claim the egg which hatches and reveals a hummingbird chick. The family is reunited and the Never Bird flies off.
