Enlarged photo added. You could be correct, as the markings are more obvious when zoomed in...

This chunky little dragon does superficially resemble a bearded dragon but it appears to have enlarged spinous dorsal scales that are in parallel straight rows - they are more irregular in Pogona (bearded dragons) . Based on that I suggest that this is just a fat Jacky Lizard. A side on view would be helpful. Did you have another photo? thanks WillO

Sorry, no other photos. The location does tend to have a lot of Jacky Lizards!
