A herring gull has been shot in the neck with a crossbow in an attack which has been condemned as "sickening".
The young had to be put down after it was discovered in Inverness with a bolt through its neck.
Animal campaigners in the city said it had been hit at close range in the attack on Tuesday morning.
Scottish SPCA chief inspector Iain Allan said: "This was a sickening incident which would have caused this bird a great deal of pain and suffering.
"We suspect this was a deliberate attack with the intention of causing harm to a defenceless animal."
Last month police were called in to investigate after a duck at a country park in Barnsley was shot through the neck with a crossbow.
The Scottish SPCA is appealing for anyone with information about the attack on the herring gull to contact them.
They should call the Scottish SPCA animal helpline number, which is 03000 999
