    Hi Scott, nice macro, but I don't think it is a creeping buttercup. It looks like a common yellow woodsorrel (Oxalis stricta) to me. Posted 12 years ago

      Now that you mention it, you may be correct, I notice that the leaf structure is different. How can I fix the identification? Posted 12 years ago, modified 12 years ago

        Use the red cross underneath identification and you can fix it. Posted 12 years ago
