It has been a slow fall for sapsuckers in the Canon City area this year. I found my first Williamson's Sapsucker on Oct 10 in a dry gulch south of town then didn't find any in Canon City until November. Things have picked up in the past week with an immature male Yellow-bellied, 2 male Williamson's and 1-2 female Williamson's Sapsuckers around town. Note I do not post specific locations as there are a couple of local photographers who have pushed sapsuckers feeding at lower areas of trees by approaching until they flush them. I have a few photos of the Yellow-bellied and a bright male Williamson's uploaded along with some natural history info for sapsuckers in this area on my Birds and Nature blog <https://birdsandnature.blogspot.com/>.
