Expert Response

Yes, it appears that those Columbine leaves have had active leaf miners, which are the young stage of a small moth. They are not uncommon, though it is kind of early in the season to be seeing that and the damage is usually minor.
How large and established is the plant and how much of it is affected?

Your photos are out of focus, so we can't see any details. If you want to send more, including one of the whole plant we are happy to take a look.
