I wanted to click some amazing images of this wonderful reptile, its has a great feature of fan like throat with attracting colours and shades.
after clicking some great images I thought of making video of this as many of you cannot get full idea just from images, so I have captured some snaps of it luckily.

These Male lizards have a thin flap of skin called a gular appendage, between their throat and their abdomen which they can flap/ flash at will.
Summer (May & June) is mating time for these colorful lizards. So the males put up this beautiful display to attract females when she is in his territory of 20 meters and warn off other male lizards.
Normally these appendages are whitish or creamish in color, but what’s interesting is that during the breeding season in summer the males of these species develop a wonderful coloration ranging from blue-black-red. They take positions over small rocks or branches on the ground to find females and flash their brightly colored gular appendages to attract them as a signal of romance..!! 😜💓
These are normally seen till 10.30 am on small rocks, after these stones start heating up they go off or can be found on some small grass/trees branches. At this time War for Love can be seen between two males, these reptiles can be captured playing wrestling..!! But I was unlucky to capture on that day....
