Default Rust Coming out of Faucet

Hi all,
When I first turn my bathroom faucet on I get a a LOT of rust-colored
liquid that comes out. It takes about 15-20 seconds for the water to
start running clear. It's a single handle faucet - I have not yet
determined if it's only happening on the hot side, cold side or both.
I have copper pipes.

Any idea what this is, or what causes it?
