At Mornington Sanctuary, most larger mounds of the Spinifex termite have several resident geckos, usually Gehyra occidentalis
(I think, as they are not so easy to catch). The mounds seem to "provide" for the geckos with hollows built up and into the
mound, apparently to give these lizards somewhere to live. The geckos forage on the warm mounds at night, feeding on
crickets and other insects.
The yellow stuff behind the lizard are the flowers of a local Acacia.
