The long branches are what are confusing me. If it was false strawberry I would actually have a spot for it. I don't know what to do with this thing.

BINGO! It is a Rough Cinquefoil. They have leaves in 3's and tall stems. Looks like it can get up to 3" tall. Hummm...wonder if the ducks can eat it.
