The silver cheglok falcon is a medium-sized predatory bird from the falcon family. It has dark gray plumage and narrow wings that allow it to fly fast and hunt in the air.
The silver cheglok falcon differs from other falcons in its very dark coloration and love for arid rocky places. It is important for nature because it regulates the population of small birds and bats.
