I watch Marsh Harriers every migration season as they pass through Dubai and I have to say Ive seen a wide variation in plumage from complete chocolate brown to various shades and sizes of cream patches. From the general way this bird is holding its wings, its beak, the legs, shape of wings etc - the 'jizz' of this bird to me is Marsh Harrier. So my guess is that this is a Marsh Harrier, who, just like we sometimes see blackbirds or crows with occoasional white (albino) genes, this Marsh Harrier also has. Pretty bird though!
