Hi! Can You identify these three plants? #876723
Asked July 10, 2024, 4:51 PM EDT
First, a follow-up; this is a close up of a (possible) Rough Horsetail, tentatively identified by your people in my request #0141849. I hope that helps "hail down" if these are Horsetails.
Second, this weird plant growing like a weed underneath our bird feeders. The only thing we put in them are oil seeds. What are these things?
Third, a cute little plant from our son's yard.
Can you I.D. these? Oh, and Thank You!

Expert Response
The plant on the left is a dock or a sorrel. The plant on the right is a ground cherry and the seeds were probably left by the birds. The cute plant is a current seedling or a raspberry seedling if it’s thorny.
