That may be what you mean when you say you read fawns have been seen in just about every month.
I'm in IL and most of the breeding here is mid-late November but ive seen all kinds of crazy things from doe with antlers(even big antlers), deer that don't shed their antlers to fawns at crazy times of the year.

Growing up we had an unreal deer population though. Like it was nothing to drive 10 miles of an evening and count 1000+ deer.
