Name these plants (under welfare just in case they're poisonous) Now with better pics

These plants are in my garden near where Frankie likes to play. I don't think he's eaten any of it as I'm not sure what it is. Better safe than sorry after all.

Anyway, it's bothering as to what they are so here are the pics:



and



I thought I'd keep the images big to help identify them.

Do you have a flower button on your camera? If so this is the macro function and will help the camera to focus closer.

The bottom leaf looks horribly like it could easily be creeping buttercup.
I do not let my pet buns eat the stuff though. It can be toxic. :shock:

The other leaf may be this plant 'hairy bitter cress'
http://www.gardenorganic.org.uk/organicweeds/weed_information/weed.php?id=84. Its edible, you can eat it but it is very bitter.

can you get pictures of the entire plant, including something to give scale, and say whether they flower?

The bottom leaf looks like a member of the rose family, possibly a Potentilla. The top one is tricky. Are they weeds or have they been planted on purpose? It would help to know what the flowers look like.

I'll try and get some better pictures in a sec, I put these pics on a gardening website too and they seem to think the bottom one is trailing tormentil and say bitter cress too.

I haven't seen them flower yet, when we moved in 6 months ago the garden had been completely weeded nicely and these have only recently started to grow.

Okay hopefully these will help:





And:

The top one looks like a wild strawberry to me

I agree that this looks like hairy bittercress - it should have tiny hairs on. If you eat it, it tastes a bit like watercress.

However there is another plant in there too, see the leaf here:
