Hi there,

         Great photos as usual, Hans.  I'll add my bit for those not 
yet identified.

         3.is a species of  False Solomon's Seal, probably Starry 
False Solomon's Seal (Smilacina stellata)
         4. is an odd blossom-like growth I have often seen on 
Blueberries (Vaccinium sp.) I think it is a gall, but I don't really know.
         5. is Stitchwort, Stellaria graminea.  It has five petals, 
so deeply slit that there appear to be ten petals, but it has only five sepals.
         6. is Yarrow (Achillea millefolium)  Interesting close-up - 
we don't usually look at them that way!

         Cheers,

         Patricia L. Chalmers
