Caspian Reed Warbler
Acrocephalus (scripaceus) fuscus

(Above) Irkayya Farm, Qatar, 30 April 2013 (EOS 7D, 300mm f2.8 + 2x Extender)

Despite the yellow soles to the feet and palour of the plumage which give the look of a Marsh Warbler, I believe the rather warm tones and the visible emarginations on P3 and P4 show this to be a Caspian Reed Warbler.
