Thanks :) It was a very heavily tangled area and I could not get close to see what went with what. Oxalis was in the area.

I don't think the whorled leaves in the picture go with the flowers. The leaves belong to cleavers (Galium aparine) or something closely related. The flowers look like some species of Oxalis, which has shamrock-like leaves.
