Population justification: The global population is inferred to number 380,000 mature individuals (Partners in Flight 2020).
Trend justification: The population in North America is in decline (Pardieck et al. 2018; Partners in Flight 2020), but this only represents part of the global range. Populations elsewhere may be stable or have declining trends (Wetlands International 2020). Overall, a slow decline is suspected.
