Hello. The flower head looks like cow parsley, but the there should be feathery leaves arranged in a sort of wide open spiral around the stem as it goes down and I am not seeing leaves. The stems look more like chives. The flowers are more spread out normally too, not in a bunch but more in a little firework spread our explosion effect. Words are not helpful tonight, but I hope you know what I mean.
Also a word of warning. Cow parsley and hemlock look very very similar. Please look both of them up online.
This sort of thing is always tricky through pictures! Hope that helped though.

I'm the same, there is so much forage in the lanes here but I am so worried about getting it wrong that I stick to just dandelions for the piggies and my rabbit!

I go weed picking for my tortoises too, so luckily I know a handful of things. Plantain, sow thistle, bristly ox tongue, dandelion, dog violet, and rose petals. Just wanted to change it up a bit lol x

It is not cow parsley, not sure what it is from the photos (need clearer pics of the leaves). It is some sort of umbellifer, could possibly be daucus (wild carrot) but definitely need clearer photos for a positive ID.
