June 1 is the peak of fawning around here. Been seeing them for weeks. Your camera may not be in the right spot.

I have been seeing fawns for more than a month here in TX

a lot of times if a fawn is still nursing a doe will leave it hidden when she goes to feed. you should start seeing then shortly.

I was thinking the same thing. They tend to avoid the thick brush and park their Fawn in high grass or weeds.

Well, its different for all of us depending on what part of the region your in, your weather conditions and when your rut is. If you know when your rut is, then fawns should be dropping roughly 6 1/2 months later (200 days). Some may drop later if they were not bred during the 1st rut cycle. Here in Ga they usually drop from May-July. The reason your not seeing them could be a number of reason. Wrong camera location, they are still too young to travel with mom, they didn't survive/haven't dropped, or the deer are not using your property this time of year. Deer patterns change with the season basically. Did/have you had pregnant does on cam?

good luck
