It *was* an Orange Bishop until last month when they renamed it the Northern Red Bishop. Follow the link below and you'll see more photos I took of the No. Red Bishop and of the Yellow-crowned Bishop (aka Golden Bishop). They are both stunning birds. Here is a link that might be useful: My Bishop photos

I agree about percussion. My son enjoyed his drum set many years after HS, and I never minded listening to the practice as it really was "music to my ears." Band is a wonderful experience for these kids, I know you agree and I commend you for whatever your involvement is. My son's school traveled outside the country a couple times to be in competitions, once to the Calgary Stampede where it rained on them and their new uniforms. He sure had a lot of wonderful experiences and is still close friends with one of his fellow drummers.

No doubt about it, the Aspens put on a magnificent show! No fall color here yet. Water lilies at the park are looking good though.
