Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as common and very widespread. Feral populations are becoming established in Italy. (del Hoyo et al. 2007). National population estimates include: c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs in China; c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs in Taiwan; c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs in Korea and c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs 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. 2007).
