Population justification: The European breeding population is estimated at 13,300–15,500 mature individuals, which roughly equates to 20,000-23,000 individuals altogether (BirdLife International 2021).
Trend justification:
Due to ongoing threats, including destruction of habitat by infrastructural planning, excessive grazing, and invasive species, the species is suspected of undergoing a population reduction. The exact rate is however difficult to determine.Country/Territory | Presence | Origin | Resident | Breeding visitor | Non-breeding visitor | Passage migrant |
