Not sure about this one, but seemed unusal. Growing on the side of a creek margin

I don't think it's Phytolacca but will also try to check it out.

I've just checked the plant and can confirm it's a weed. A few years ago there was a large patch of it on the other side of the road in the creek line. I removed all the plants, but it looks like seed has been washed through the drain under the road and germinated further down (= the plant you photographed). If you are there again, please pull it out!
