Distribution and trends
Distribution
This map is derived from the Bird Atlas of the Netherlands (Sovon 2018). For each atlas square of 5x5 km, an estimate for the number of wintering birds is given.
Population trends
non-breeding bird trend
Data derived from point-transect-counts in december. Shown is the annual population index (with standard error), calculated over about 500 transects with each 20 point-counts.

This chart is based on LiveAtlas. The reporting frequency per decade is shown, averaged over the last 5 years. The reporting frequency is the percentage of complete lists on which the species is registered.
Occurrence description
Buiten broedtijd
Als echte kustvogel vertoont de Oeverpieper niet vaak ver in het binnenland. In het IJsselmeergebied is de soort schaars en diep landinwaarts verdienen alle waarnemingen aandacht. De Oeverpieper vertoeft in Nederland tussen half september en half april, met schaarse meldingen in augustus en mei. De aantallen zijn het hoogst in oktober-november, wanneer vooral de kwelders van het Waddengebied en schorren van het Verdronken land van Saeftinghe vol met Oeverpiepers kunnen zitten. In koude winters kan het accent richting Deltagebied verschuiven, waarna het Waddengebied in het voorjaar weer zijn koppositie herneemt. De terugtrek naar de Scandinavische broedgebieden verloopt bijna ongemerkt tussen eind februari en begin april.
Birds directive
Conservation status
The Birds Directive focuses on the conservation of all naturally occurring wild bird species in Europe, including the European Rock Pipit.
This means that EU Member States must take measures to maintain or bring the populations of these species to a level that corresponds in particular to ecological, scientific and cultural requirements.
The Birds Directive requires Member States to maintain habitats for birds of sufficient size and quality, including through the designation of Special Protection Areas for the benefit of the European Natura 2000 network. No special protection zones have been designated for the European Rock Pipit in the Netherlands. The national population must be able to maintain itself at a favorable level.
What is the methodology to assess the conservation status of birds
non-breeding bird
The conservation status of the European Rock Pipit as non-breeding bird in the Netherlands is favourable.
