Everyone was so helpful today with my pic, I thought I'd try a couple more I can't find easily. All of these were shot along the North Shore of Lake Superior this spring and summer. Thanks

My first guess for the first one looks like
a wild mustard..
I'd need to see a backed up picture of it,
with the stem and the leaves?????????

Second one looks familiar, but can't Duh place it...

The second one has the same bloom type as plants in the legume families...perhaps a wild sweet pea?

I was going to say some thing like that..
but I can't see the leaves or stems..
*(sure wish we had a shot of both stems and leaves, those are also very important when identifing some species..)*

almost looks like baby snapdragons...

Could the second one be a Penstemon?

No, I think I got it now...Baptisia Alba...white wild indigo. And it's in the Legume family too.
