pymongo and python: issue with find document using date filter

Question

I am trying to retrive document from mongodb using pymongo and python from these mongodb collection.

{
  "fees": "0.00",
  "trigger": "immediate",
  "price": "18.30000000",
  "recordTimestamp": "2023-01-10T12:03:27.197000Z"
},
{
  "fees": "4.00",
  "trigger": "immediate",
  "price": "12.30000000",
  "recordTimestamp": "2023-02-10T12:03:27.197000Z"
},
{
  "fees": "1.00",
  "trigger": "immediate",
  "price": "10.30000000",
  "recordTimestamp": "2023-03-10T12:03:27.197000Z"
}

If I use mongoDB compass and do this filter

{recordTimestamp: {$gte: '2023-01-24',$lte: '2023-03-01'}}

I get below expected result.

{
  "fees": "4.00",
  "trigger": "immediate",
  "price": "12.30000000",
  "recordTimestamp": "2023-02-10T12:03:27.197000Z"
}

however when I use same filter in pymongo I get nothing.

stdateval = datetime(2023,1,24)
endateval = datetime(2023,3,1)
dtFilter = { "recordTimestamp" : {"$gte": stdateval,"$lt": endateval}}

collection = DBModule.database[collectionName]
jsnObj_list = collection.find(dtFilter)

What am I doing wrong?

btw I tried this alternative and it also gets the expected result. but not with pymongo find option.

stdateval = datetime(2023, 1, 24)
endateval = datetime(2023, 3, 1)

jsnObj_list = collection.find({})

filtered_list = []
for item in jsnObj_list:
    recordTimestamp = datetime.strptime(item['recordTimestamp'], "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%fZ")
    if stdateval <= recordTimestamp < endateval:
        filtered_list.append(item)

Sharing solution I found.

resolved using filter

{
  "$or" : [
   { 'recordTimestamp': {$gte: '2023-01-24'} },
   { 'recordTimestamp': {$lte: '2023-03-01'} }
   ]  }
