Most reported in October.

52% of these 87 records were made in September and October. None has been logged in January, March, April, and December yet.

This shows when 87 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”.
