>Solution :

Convert to yearday and use filter

library(dplyr)
library(lubridate)
df1 %>% 
  mutate(date = ymd(date)) %>% 
  filter(between(yday(date), 228, 289))

-output

 site year       date
1    A 2019 2019-08-18
2    A 2019 2019-10-14
3    B 2019 2019-08-19
4    B 2019 2019-10-15
5    A 2020 2020-08-18
6    A 2020 2020-10-14
7    B 2020 2020-08-19
8    B 2020 2020-10-15

data

df1 <- structure(list(site = c("A", "A", "A", "A", "B", "B", "B", "B", 
"A", "A", "A", "A", "B", "B", "B", "B"), year = c(2019L, 2019L, 
2019L, 2019L, 2019L, 2019L, 2019L, 2019L, 2020L, 2020L, 2020L, 
2020L, 2020L, 2020L, 2020L, 2020L), date = c("2019-08-08", "2019-08-18", 
"2019-10-14", "2019-10-27", "2019-08-07", "2019-08-19", "2019-10-15",
