Leap season? (6)
I believe the answer is:
spring
I believe this is a double definition.
'leap' is the first definition.
(leap can mean to spring or jump)
'season?' is the second definition.
(spring is a season)
(Other definitions for spring that I've seen before include "Leap at a well-head" , "Source; help escape (from prison)" , "Shoot forth" , "Jump up in early season" , "split" .)
