Correct. The reddish hue is probably due to what is called "bog iron." When you have an iron rich environment in a reducing environment as in an a bog you will have mineral laden fluid that then oxidizes when it gets close to the surface and give that exact color as in the video. What we have in the video is a warm spring that is laden with bog iron and oxidizing as it gets near the surface.
