Default ID Please

So I started a new weed patch last year and it's established really well but there's three plants I'm not familiar with and wondered if anyone recognised them please?

Photos 1 & 2 are the same plant:



It looks as if there'll be a cluster of flowers on the top but I'm bamboozled.




This seems to be everywhere:



Same plant:



Finally:



Thank you.

I know there's yarrow in photo 4. It'll be coming out, but waiting to see if I need a big de-weeding session first.

ooh I love these type threads. I am pretty useless though ! last one I believe is aquilegia. I have hundreds of plants around and sometimes mine nibble them but Tort table says best avoided if can so I do try and bind them back out the way - or dig them up ! pretty little flowers though so might be worth transferring to pots ! ? the one above it looks like a strain of ranuculous... buttercup type though it never looks like it with that version...may not be ! or wild geranium...mmmm, will have to wait for experts to pop out of there nook, CB !

I think the second one looks like either a hardy or wild geranium , but I don't know what the others are.

Hmmm...thanks ladies. Maybe I'll wait and see what flowers appear first. At least they're not in the enclosures so there's no immediacy to move them, just would prefer to keep the weed patch safe feeds only.

I agree that the second one looks like hardy geranium and the third is aquilegia but not sure about the first one.
