tall yellow daisy like woodland flower

What is this tall yellow woodland flower? The main stem is about 2-3 feet tall, and 2-3 stems shoot off the main stem, each with a yellow daisy like flower. It has large (3-4 inches long) wide heart shaped light green leaves at the base of the plant. These leaves have saw-like edges and have wrinkles/veins. The yellow flowers are about 1.5 inches in diameter. It seems to be spreading on its own and is growing at the edge of the woods/trees around my house. Is it a toxic weed/plant?

I'm afraid your image is too small for a proper ID,
uploading you picture to Photobucket.com allows for full

Photo is tiny, but maybe Senecio?

Here is a link that might be useful: senecio aureus

Looks like leaopard's bane, Doronicum orientale.

I was thinking Doronicum too but didn't know whether it would would growing out in the woods. Also 1 1/2 inches seems a little small for the flowers but I've only seen it in gardens where it's well fed.
