Tippy was cruisin' around the yard the other day and she seemed very interested in this, but I didn't want her to eat it before knowing what it was.

The second one looks like Carolina Geranium but I'm not 100% sure. I live in NC if that helps narrow it down. Thanks!

Carolina Cranesbill looks like the second one...
Perhaps the first one is a type of Goose Grass???

She always tries to nibble at the first one, so if it's edible I'm excited because I know she will gobble it up :) thanks!

Second one looks like buttercup family. If you can wait till it flowers, it's easier to get a positive id.

I doubt it's any kind of buttercup, but I'm no expert. The first one is really what I'm curious about since she's tried to eat it several times. I found this but I'm not 100% about it.ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1400862540.638424.jpg
