Silver is a character from the Angry Birds series. She is a square-shaped, gray bird and a member of the Flock who was originally raised by the pigs. Silver first appeared in Angry Birds 2, with the ability to loop in mid-air and fall down for a powerful impact.
Concept and creation
Based on initial designs by Andreas Chrysovitsanos, Silver was intended to be a red-colored hawk that resembled Gale. At one point, she was redesigned to resemble a female counterpart of Red.[6]
Appearance
Silver is a square-shaped, limbless Peale's falcon mostly covered in gray feathers. Her eyes have black pupils and a single pointed eyelash on each one, and her beak has a red-colored tip pointing downwards. Her head has long feathers pointing behind her body. She has two rounded teeth, resembling those of the pigs.
Personality
In her earlier appearances, such as in Angry Birds 2, Silver's personality has been elaborated on very little. From her sparse appearances during the time, she is portrayed as an energetic, free-spirited, loud, and a bit mischievous individual. As detailed in the comic "The 4th Egg", she was originally inside an egg which King Pig planned to eat. Upon being discovered, the rest of the pigs decided to take care of her, has left a lasting impact on her both physically and mentally. She shares multiple traits with them, mostly with the Minion Pigs, such as a goofy sense of humor, a prankster attitude, and identical rounded teeth. Despite this, she strongly prefers the company of The Flock who rescued her.[7] Silver displays little concern for taking care of the eggs, but she joins the flock in their battles to retrieve them.[2]
Around 2024, in depictions of Silver that make use of her classic design, she is portrayed as intellectual much like her Movie incarnation, using her knowledge to come up with solutions to solve problems. Unlike her movie counterpart, she is not Chuck's sister and retains her original backstory.[5][3][4]
Game appearances
Angry Birds 2
Silver is first introduced in Angry Birds 2. Originally, she was unlocked in level 24 of the game, in New Pork City, though in later updates, she can now be unlocked after completing a level with a Bird key. Silver can be upgraded with gray feathers to give the player extra points.
In gameplay, Silver can be playable any time the player has a card of her in their hands. While not very powerful, Silver can easily destroy stone. When tapped onto the screen when launched, Silver will loop forward and up in a circle to fall downwards. When she impacts with an object, she creates a small shockwave that slightly pushes objects away. With this ability, Silver is able to hit bosses with an incredible strength. While she cannot be used if the player does not have a card of her, they can play as her again after they obtain, by random chance, a card of her by filling the Destructometer.
On July 6, 2024, Silver's ability was updated to include a new "earthquake" power that briefly shakes buildings on all platforms after landing her loop.
Angry Birds Friends
Silver makes a cameo appearance in Angry Birds Friends in the Angry Birds 2 Tournament as a card that when a bird hits it, it can summon Golden Ducks in the level.
However, Silver made a reappearance in 2022 as an offer in the game called Silver's Lab where the player can buy Power-Ups within the game. Silver also appears on the loading screen during Slingathlon Tournament despite the fact she's not playable.
Angry Birds Blast!
In Angry Birds Blast!, Silver makes a small appearance with Bubbles in the Royal Marriage Sale Artwork, where she wears a bridal veil and has black hair that covers her head.
Angry Birds POP!
In Angry Birds POP!, Silver appears as a Guest Star that is playable in random days. Her gameplay is the same as that from other character in the game. In addition, when filling the Bird Meter, she will be able to launch a Star Pop.
Angry Birds Reloaded
In Angry Birds Reloaded, Silver returns as a playable character, but exclusively in the Eagle Island chapter of the game, complete with a non-anthropomorphic design that resembles that from the films. Like Angry Birds 2, she will loop in a circle and fall downwards. She replaces Stella’s spot from the normal gameplay.
Angry Birds Racing
Silver makes an appearance in Angry Birds Racing where she is unlocked with Bomb in the Silver League.
Media appearances
The 4th Egg
The 4th Egg [8] is a short comic posted by Rovio in 2015, revealing Silver's origins. Her egg was found in a hidden area in the forest, where a minion pig found her and took it to King Pig. The king kisses the pig in joy. Obviously pleased, he commands the minion to send it to Chef Pig, where it could be cooked and eaten. Before Chef Pig begins cooking, the egg begins to slowly hatch, revealing a baby bird. A crowd of minion pigs gaze in awe at the newly born hatchling, much to the displeasure of the cook. One views the hatchling as their own bird and names her "Silver". To quote the comic, "Our very own bird! Silver!"
Angry Birds Zero Gravity
In Angry Birds Zero Gravity, Silver makes a small cameo in "Stamp Collector", where she appears in various stamps in Red's stamp collection.
Angry Birds on The Run
In Angry Birds on The Run, Silver makes a cameo on various posters in the Girl's room.
Powers and abilities
Silver's signature ability involves looping in the air and falling down, which she can use to crash onto a surface and destroy it, creating a small shockwave. She also demonstrates moderate strength, able to destroy stone but in a limited number.

Trivia

- Based on initial designs by Andreas Chrysovitsanos, Silver was intended to be a red-colored hawk that resembled Gale. At one point, she was redesigned to resemble a female counterpart of Red, much like Ruby.[9]

- Silver's classic design is based on the Angry Birds Toons art style rather than being based on the original art style.
