I walked along the beach near the Ullapool River spit just before 3 pm. I was watching three drake goosanders in breeding plumage when a white-winged gull flew in and landed on the water where it had a wash and brush-up.
It received some aggro from the other gulls, but gave as good as it got.
I'm fairly sure it was a glaucous gull (not an Iceland) although whether it was the glauc, I can't say. A heavy shower of rain and even worse light sent me home for the day.
