We went to 'click & collect at Tescos, Inverness, yesterday and there,standing on the roof was an Oystercatcher..

I've seen oystercatchers as far inland as Tomintoul and Braemar.

I don't know which Tesco store you were at, John but I've seen an oystercatcher probing the grass at the Inverness Tesco store on the A96.

This one was on the A9,Dave. After leaving we went over the Kessock bridge, Moray Firth and then west. . It's a massive store . So big it's called 'Tesco Extra' . I've just done a Google. Inverness shopping park,Eastfield Way.

The same one. It is very close to the A9 but just on the A96. At the far end of the retail park there are speakers on one of the buildings playing alarm calls to try to deter the gulls with a little success. Oystercatchers seem, in my limited experience, to be very flighty bird, given to being spooked easily so it surprised me to see one in such a busy location.
