The most outstanding plant in your picture is a cattail. Great plant found in water and swampy areas. Have a read about them. The plant is a "survivalist" plant. The young shoots can be eaten, the heads can be made into a flour, etc, etc. Many uses for the cattail. Often home to the redwinged blackbird.

Hi!
Everybody is right, they're cat-tails or Typha latifolia.
Indians of North America used its roots and flowers as remedy, its young shoots as food (tastes somewhat like asparagus) and the down from spikes as insulation, for beds and to dress burns. The leaves were used to weave baskets and mats
