Happy Leap Year!
Do you wish people happy leap year? It seems like you should since it's an extra special day, one that doesn't come around every year :)

The bright colors and bird designs make me think ahead to Spring; which is just around the corner. After all, tomorrow is the first day of March!
Here are a few closeup shots of the details...
