Population justification: In Europe, the total population size is estimated at 343,000-783,000 mature individuals, with 171,000-392,000 breeding pairs (BirdLife International 2021), and comprises approximately 10% of the species' global range, so a very preliminary estimate of the global population size is between 3,430,000-7,830,000 mature individuals, although further validation of this estimate is desirable. The overall population trend is difficult to determine as some populations are increasing and others decreasing, and populations are subject to considerable fluctuations (del Hoyo et al. 2007). In Europe, the species' population is considered to have undergone a small increase over three generations (10 years) (BirdLife International 2021). Based on these data, and the proportion of the species' global range that this region holds, the global population size is considered likely to be increasing slowly over three generations.
