This is the second encounter between a male Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis) and a male Brown Anole (Anolis sagrei) I witnessed. The first altercation took place about a month earlier on the same fence (the first post can be seen here: https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-620482-1.html).
I have no idea if they were the same lizards, but there definitely was some attraction with the top rail of that fence!
The Brown Anoles usually meet their demise during such encounters with a Green Anole. As in the first post though, the Brown Anole lived but was relegated to hang out on the much less desirable lower fence fabric.

Hmmm. Interesting series to me because here on Hawaii Island I've seen a significant increase in the population of both green and brown anoles and a decrease in the population of gold dust geckos while the native Hawaiian gecko population seems to have stabilized after being displaced by the gold dust geckos. Nature naturing. Usually the anoles seem to prevail over the geckos which now seem to avoid them assiduously. While we always have gold dust geckos in the house hiding behind pictures or under kitchen appliances lately the anoles have started to invade the interior of the house. It will be interesting to see if the geckos are displaced inside the house as well as outside.

Great series. I bet they are fighting over the best territory to display for the females.
