Wedge-leaf Draba Draba cunefolia Mustard Family Annual or winter annual Native volunteer |
These four species of winter annuals--two native, two introduced--blossomed in April 2017 on the riparian buffer bordering the Creek Field. All four were volunteers!

Slender Fumewort Corydalis micrantha Fumewort Family Winter annual, native volunteer |
I found a fly busily drinking nectar from Treacle Mustard (the fly is visible in the photo below). The fly doesn't seem to object to the mustard's non-native status!
