What Causes Spotting Between Periods While On Birth Control Pills?

I've been on Ortho Tri Cyclen birth control pill for 9 months and never have had any spotting between periods. This week I have been spotting brownish red for 2 days now and my period isn't due until next week..about 7 days. Is this normal? What could be wrong?
