Western Black-headed Wagtail
Motacilla (flava) feldegg

(Above) Pools North of Salwa Rd Exit 24, Doha, Qatar, 30 October 2012 (EOS 7D, 300mm f2.8 + 2x Extender)

The strong bill and black flecking starting to show at the back of the head would sugest feldegg rathern than M. flava thunbergi. And the all yellow chin and sides of throat are indicative of Western rather than Eastern Black-headed Wagtail.
