Population justification: The European population is estimated at 30,000-60,000 pairs, which equates to 60,000-120,000 mature individuals (BirdLife International 2015). Europe forms <10% of the global range so a very preliminary estimate of the global population size is 600,000-1,200,000 mature individuals although further validation of this estimate is needed. National population estimates include: c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs and c.50-1,000 individuals on migration in China; c.100-10,000 breeding pairs and c.50-1,000 individuals on migration in Korea; c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs and c.50-1,000 individuals on migration in Japan and c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs and c.1,000-10,000 individuals on migration in Russia (Brazil 2009).
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats (del Hoyo et al. 2006). The population trend in Europe is unknown (BirdLife International 2015).
