Silverbird (award)
[[File:1912_Opening_ceremony_-_Denmark.JPG|350px|right|thumb|The Scovernois Invictus team at the 1910 Summer Invictus Games in Morwall, Estmere, were the first team to be known as silverbirds, amassing no golds, 6 silvers and 4 bronzes over the games, 16 total points, earning them a 7th-place spot.
The Silverbird (Gaullican: Oiseau d'Argent) is an unofficial award at the Invictus Games, given to the most decorated country who fails to win a gold medal throughout the games. There is no official recognition of this award, though it is common terminology in Invictus parlance due to the points system the games uses, which allocates points for silver and bronze medals, thus allowing countries without gold medals to finish high in the awards table.
The first usage of the term silverbird dates back to Morwall 1910 and the Scovernois Invictus team. Though it is similar in concept to the wooden spoon, silverbird tends to only be used in the Invictus Games. The term itself is a reference to the Scovernois team's performance in 1910, but in general refers to the team's medal composition, which usually includes a high tally of silvers to propel up the points standings.
