I was not aware of the significance of this sighting viewed one summer afternoon on the trunk of an Ilyarrie Gum Tree in Western Australia. What I witnessed has been confirmed as a "Lek". What you see in the video is a competitive display by males showing off in the hope of attracting a female. I guess it worked as I have been observing females dipping their tails in our white sand along the firebreaks - I assume laying eggs.
