I'd appreciate help with the ID of these plants which I photographed in N.Ireland.   |

Hi,
No.1 - I'm struggling without a close-up or leaf information. (Best I can do is probably Hawkweed / Hawk's-beard).
No.2 - Looks like Prickly Sow Thistle, but it's very early to be in full bloom if the photo has just been taken. (Usual Jun-Aug).
Regards
Mike. |

No. 1 is probably Beaked Hawk's-beard (Crepis vesicaria) |

Here's another shot of the tall yellow plant which I took in another location. I hope it might help with the ID.

With the leaf shape, and purple flushing/furrowing on the stems, I would agree with Tiggrx's earlier suggestion of Beaked Hawk's-beard.
