Calculate the number of days passed from a given year

I have this code for calculating the number of days passed from a given year:

for (int currentYear = localDate.getYear() - 1; currentYear >= STARTING_YEAR; currentYear--){

            LocalDate date = LocalDate.of(currentYear,5,5); //an arbitrary day of year

            jdn += date.lengthOfYear();

        }

jdn += localDate.getDayOfYear();

This code is working as expected.

I am not comfortable with choosing an arbitrary day to only get the length of the year. Is there any better approach?
