Flower I.D. please
Sorry about the poor image. This is found in Eastern Washington State. Thanks.
Some variety of Vetch.
Joe
Thanks Joe, I wikied Vetch and wiki says it's primarily from Europe and was introduced here. Clasified as a common weed. Bumble Bees love it. Thanks again.
I saw something very much like that on a hike the other day.
There are no vetches native to North America that look like that. There are a few similar species, but I think your plants are Hairy vetch, vicia villosa. It is invasive and a problem in many states, including Washington.

My WAG is that it is Foxglove. Very common here in southwestern British Columbia, Canada

Don't know, but it's definitely not Foxglove.
Checked it out in my plant snap app. Says it is Winter Vetch. It is considered invasive in Washington State.

It does superficially resemble
Digitalis purpurea - Common foxglove.

Winter vetch is another common name for
Vicia villosa. The same plant can have different common names in different regions.
