I understand that with a better age/sex structured herd the rut is supposed to be intense, tightly timed, and shorter in duration but over the last few years I've seen more small, spotted fawns towards the tail end of the season, post season, and very early spring than I ever used to.

Looks like spots to me. Probably born so late in fall that they weren't old enough to grow a grey winter coat.

BSK is dead on. The rut...breeding doesn't actually go by a calendar. We just think it does. Mother Nature adjusts the rut.
