Wintering sapsuckers in Canon City area: Williamson's Sapsuckers

Today I found both a male and a female Williamson's Sapsucker in the town of Florence as well as 4 female and 2 male Williamson's Sapsuckers in Canon City including this female.
I was surprised just how different these three pics of the same sapsucker look--I took all within one minute but the sun really made a difference in the lighting.
In the bottom pic it appears, when the pic is super enlarged, that there is a small bubble at the end of the bird's bill--or maybe it's just a drop of sap?? SeEtta
