Default Can't tell if this is a water sucker or a weed

Hello,

I have three stalks growing near my blue java tree. Two are obviously banana trees. I think they are sword suckers. Then I have one that looks to me to be a water sucker, but it also doesn't look like any water suckers I've seen online so I'm thinking maybe it's some weed or stray plant.

Does this look like a water sucker to you?

Thanks. At first I wasn't sure, but as it got bigger I started to realize. There was bird seed around, so it may be a sunflower.
