Population justification: Partners in Flight estimated the global population to number more than 50,000,000 individuals (A. Panjabi in litt. 2008), which is placed in the band 50,000,000-100,000,000 individuals here.
Trend justification: The population trend is increasing in North America (based on BBS/CBC data: Butcher and Niven 2007).
