Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as generally common, although rare on Fogo island, Cape Verde and uncommon in Jordan and abundant on Sal, Boavista, and mayo, Cape Verde and very common in central Saudi Arabia (del Hoyo et al. 2004).
Trend justification: The population is estimated to be in decline following recorded declines in recent decades (del Hoyo et al. 2004).
