This is a yellow wagtail (Motacilla flava). Unusually, there are a whole handful of subspecies of yellow wags. This one is m.f.feldegg more usually found in Turkey, and the Caucuses; the North African M.f.iberiae has a paler head. The UK bird - M.f.flava - has a grey cap, pronounced, white stripe above the eye.
