The first one is Purple-flowering Raspberry. You're right about the second one being Butter-and-eggs. The third one is a Morning Glory, but I can't say for certain which species without seeing the leaves.

This is probably one of my favorite wildflowers, though it is easily overlooked because it's so small. I've been using them as accents in wildflower bouquets for the cabins over the past few weeks.

We took some time to drive up to the forest this afternoon to check on the progress/status of the elusive Lady's Slippers and I'm very sad to say that it appears that someone has in fact dug them up. It could have happened any time over the past few summers, but there were only a few basal leaves present where there was once a decent patch. I can't say whether or not they had flowered yet, but it's hardly worth the boring, insect ridden hike for one or two plants.
We took our time on the hike back, hoping to perhaps spot another patch in the pine stands just off the trail when I spotted these. I'd never seen these in real life; only in classroom handouts while studying mushrooms, fungi and parasitic plants.

The first one is Whorled Loosestrife, not to be confused with the nasty invasive Purple Loosestrife. Very pretty flower of the Primrose Family.
