This squirrel was spotted among the snow this week in Sutton Coldfield.

"Gosh, I'm cold" - that might not be what this stag is "saying" but it looks freezing enough in this photo in Burntwood, Staffordshire, for it to be so.

We love to feature your photographs showing the beauty of the West Midlands and here are some of the best from the past week.

With the weather starting off frosty and icy but thawing - a little - as the week has gone on, we have also started to see the very first buds showing spring may just be on the horizon.

For you to be featured in future, upload your images by becoming a member of BBC Weather Watchers.

For inspiration, view some top tips here from three of England's Big Picture photographers.

Worcester was the place where this robin was photographed

Please note that while we welcome all your pictures, we are more likely to use those which have been taken in the past week.

Happy snapping!
