Population justification: Partners in Flight estimate the global population to number two million mature individuals (A. Panjabi in litt. 2017). In Europe, recent estimates include 1,000-40,000 mature individuals in Norway, 6,000 mature individuals in Finland, 200-2,000 mature individuals in Sweden and 20,000-200,000 mature individuals in European Russia (Tyler 2018).
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats.
