A SEWIN, as five of you correctly guessed, is a sea trout.  Mile Shefler was one of those correct guessers and also got three votes for his piglet, making him the new dealer.  Judy Madnick was the lucky runner-up, with a correct guess and 2 votes for her small piping marsh bird.

My house saga continues, so my participation in the game may be a bit random.
