Hello All, hope everyone is well.

Could anyone tell me what these are please?

The first one is a little flower that's started appearing all around my pond, I'm assuming it will be considered a weed, but I quite like it.

 The second one in the foreground (ignore the woodyness behind) I about three or four feet tall, with dark green stems and these green buds at the top.

 Cheers!

    Hi Jack

    That's the top one, invasive by seed and root. I like it as wellimage

    The second is oats. From the bird feeder?

    Hi Nutcutlet!

    Thank you, fast as always. Wow very invasive, I wonder whether I should do anything about it.

    Ah the second one has grown quite near the bird feeder, oats, ha! I thought it was going to flower into something interesting.

    If I had a small garden or liked a tidy one I wouldn't have the hieracium.

    Oats a quite attractive in their flowering. I've got a good crop of wheat this year, same sourceimage
