Next drove to South Park & stopped at the 1st ranch south of Jefferson which is the headquarters of the South Park Cattle Company (#2 location of my Jan-Feb Colorado trip). I saw 1 atrata in the corals so I ran & got my gun. When I returned it was gone. Instead I saw & collected 4 tephracolis, 1 australis, & 1 littoralis between 5PM & 5:30 PM. I talked to the manager of the company for awhile about rebellious college students, politics & the local cattle feeds in South Park & then drove on to location 3 where I collected 4 tephracolis by shooting down cliff swallow nests inside a barn.
