Orangey sish

Last night we had twelve or fifteen cm of snow. It stuck well enough on the ground while the saltwater melted it immediately. But in the brackish water of Ganny Cove, the water it landed on was colder and formed a kind of slush, what's called sish ice or just sish in these parts. The water that freshens the saltwater here is the high-tannin water of Ganny Cove Brook, and that tannin makes the sish a little orange.
