How to change targets for Hunter's Mark

I killed the creature that it was on, and my Ranger is still concentrating but I can't find a way to move the target to another foe. It only says I have to break concentration to cast it again, which I don't want to do. I can see that I have the mark up, but nowhere can I found how to change who it's on as a bonus action. Thanks.

I deleted my explaination to instead use an image ...

Here, my archer killed one thug : there is now a big Target icon to re-apply Hunter's Mark on a new target (if you have a Bonus Action left. If not, you will see it next round).

Unless a spell has a perceptible effect, a creature might not know it was targeted by a spell at all. An effect like crackling lightning is obvious, but a more subtle effect, such as an attempt to read a creature's thoughts, typically goes unnoticed, unless a spell says otherwise. So, yes, they remain unaware.

I am not sure you responded in the correct thread, as the question was from a new player who did not know how to use Hunter's Mark after the initial target has died/fallen. 

As for awareness, in Solasta, the first time you cast it, it triggers combat.  The next times it does not.  In truth, the Verbal component of others spells do not trigger enemy awareness if they are non-combat spells, so I feel Hunter's Mark should not trigger combat during the first cast either.
