Wonder if any of you have seen something like this....

One of my visiting Toms has a gold/copper colored "ring" around the top of it's beard by the body. Ring is completely around the beard and is about 1/2" wide, naturally I call him "Ringo", lol
Never saw anything like it on any of the many Toms that come around....

Where you find beard rot, you often see the orange/copper colored strands at the tips of where the beard broke
