60% of these 10 records were made in February, August, and October. None has been logged in January, May, June, July, and November yet.

This shows when 10 records were made, not when fireflies fly. A place people only visit in one season looks seasonal for that reason alone, so treat a thin month as “nobody looked” rather than “nothing there”.
