Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified. In Europe, the breeding population is estimated to number 500-2,000 pairs, which equates to 1,000-4,000 mature individuals (BirdLife International 2015), but Europe forms <5% of the global range.

Trend justification: The population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats. The tiny European population is estimated to be stable (BirdLife International 2015).
