What is this bean-like plant in a forest on Vancouver Island, British Columbia?

Question

I found a plant near my house in Malahat on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. It seems to be some sort of bean.

It is a vine and has pods that are about an inch long and the seeds are about 2 mm across; they are brown with tiny black spots.

Could anyone identify it for me?

Do you have photographs of the plant as well? If you have them, the whole plant as well as close-ups of the leaves, flowers and pods. Thanks! — Niall C., Aug 23, 2015 at 3:57

I have found out what it is.

This seed is from the field pea plant.

The place i found it says:

Seeds are spherical, up to 5 mm in diameter, with thin, tuberculate seed coat, dark brown, sometimes with dark spots."
