What a week! Saturday, March 20 is the day of the Spring Equinox but we have already been seeing many beautiful signs of Spring with crocuses emerging from the grass, cherry blossoms blooming and tiny wildlife coming out of hibernation.
We have a good mix of pictures sent in by our readers this week, including a stunning still of birds making patterns in the air, a hilarious snap of a blue tit checking out its own reflection and a beautiful moment where a couple shows their dog they are having a baby.
Let's take a look at this week's edition of Northamptonshire reader pictures of the week!
