If this is the only instance of this happening, don't worry about it.

This seems to be indeed a rare issue. What I have shown in the crop here was the worst case, and similar but less visible issues are present in about a handful of shots (out of about 50). This happens mostly on photos with OOF foliage, and my assumption (thanks to the helpful feedback in this thread so far) is that this happens when something else in front of the focused subject is in the image. I will check that!

I wouldn’t worry so much, if a viewer wouldn’t have pointed this out to me. This was quite embarrassing.

If it's an ongoing problem, post a full-size image you can share (preferably the RAW). You aren't giving us much to go on here. It could be a lens rendering issue, a motion artifact. a RAW demosaicing artifact, an alignment artifact (if it's an HDR etc.), it could be an electronic shutter artifact too. Do you have a RAW and a Jpeg to compare? You aren't making it easy.

I realize it is not much to work with, but I currently gave every information I could without violating laws. I will try to isolate this issue with some specific test shots. I now also realize how RAW demosaicing could play a role here. Thanks.
