Most reported in April.

53% of these 17 records were made in February, April, and July. None has been logged in March, October, and November yet.

This shows when 17 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”.
