Abstract
1. 1.|Body temperature ( T b ) and activity of the snake Masticophis flagellum were studied by radiotelemetry in an outdoor enclosure. 2. 2.|Mean diurnal T b varied little over a wide range of weather conditions, but weather variation was accompanied by major changes in sun exposure and in the timing and duration of activity. 3. 3.|Recently fed snakes reduced activity and exhibited neither a thermophilic response nor increased precision of thermoregulation compared to fasting snakes.
