UFO over Loch Indaal, Isle of Islay?

To answer the question from the title of this post: No.

This is a view from the Loch Indaal coastal path in the very last light of dusk/gloaming. Some stars high in the sky, below them the service plane from Glasgow approaching across the Rhinns of Islay on its way to Islay International Airport at Glenegedale. Below it towards the right you can make out the light of the Loch Indaal lighthouse.
