Are you sure that the Start and End day of year numbers haven't 
already been corrected for leap years? If not, you can correct both for all 
years like this:

Samaru$Start<-Samaru$Start - Samaru$Start > 60)
Samaru$End<-Samaru$End - Samaru$End > 60)

as you don't want to shift the dates before Feb 29.
