    Welcome to the forums.
    Agreed...... 13 is too many plants to identify in one go!

    Far easier posted just 3-4 at a time.
    It is actually quite hard to work out the number and add an id...then go back to go next couple.

     11.  The fruits may look like Alder but the leaves plus catkins say Betula..a birch tree.

    4 is an Epilobium species.  Otherwise I agree with Dove.  It's a good thing we've got time on our hands!
