Any fawns showing up yet?

I run the swather during hay season. It’s a 16 foot John Deere self propelled we bought new 2 years ago. It can really lay a lot of hay down. I usually run 1-3 fawns through it a day. Pisses me off and makes me feel bad seeing the does fighting off the buzzards. Even when we had the old pull type hydro swing swather I’d run them through. Little things just won’t get up and almost impossible to see in 3-4 foot brome.

I have yet to see one on camera but I have photos this week of a couple of does who look like they have dropped fawns.

belly is far less pronounced so I am guessing they have some little ones around

Had two in my driveway 2 weeks ago. Could barely stand. Mom was having a fit because they were on the edge of a cul de sac.

I've seen thousands of deer, never one's that small. Had to less than a day old.
