Trevor,
I watched similar behavior between two Rock Warblers in the
Hassans Walls NR at Lithgow a couple of years ago, while "facing off" they
both repeatedly jumped and rotated up to 180degrees, one turning less than
the other, usually clockwise, then back to face each other, or hopping a
short distance before returning.
It didn't appear aggressive, between these displays, which lasted
perhaps two minutes at a time, the two birds would hop or fly off to another
area or rock and feed. I took it to be a mating display
