Abstract
⺠Plastic behaviour allows animals flexibility when environmental conditions vary. ⺠Animal personality refers to consistent differences between individuals. ⺠We investigated personality and plasticity over seasons in wild lizard behaviour. ⺠Different behaviours were differentially affected by the change in season. ⺠Personality and plasticity may be under different selection in different seasons.
