I agree, it looks like berry juice, to me.

We have had lots of "baby" woodpeckers at our feeders this year. On the
17th of June, we had a RBWP show up with blood on its face and neck. It
seemed to be fine; just young and learning how to fly. Pictures are
attached to my ebird report (can't figure out how to link it here!). My
question is, why was it bloody? Do these WPs attack siblings in the nest?
Could it have been attacked by a Starling? I have never seen this before so
am very curious.
