maple seedlings

I don't have a lot of weeds in the garden and yard, but I do have a ton of maple seedlings this year- the trees were prolific!
I've been pulling them out of all the usual places- cracks in the deck, between paving stones, garden plots, the lawn- and found a few growing in a rotting piece of the old cherry tree we took down years ago.
There's one in the center of this cherry log piece, too.
I didn't pull those up, I'm amused to let them grow for now- there seems something appropriate about letting a young tree grow in the remnants of an old one.
