It's probably pink woodsorrel (Oxalis debilis), not a clover. If you taste it (both are edible) it will be sour. It's common weed. Read this for my adventures with this South American native. greengardeningmatters.blogspot.com/2020/04/a-so...

The lovely Cardinal is perched on a strawberry bush (Euonymus americanus) aka American strawberry bush, bursting-heart, hearts-a-bustin, and hearts-bustin'-with-love. It's native to most of the eastern United States.
