Name That Plant!

need help identifying outdoor weed/plant in mn

9 years ago

I found several of these coming up under a spruce tree. I was hoping they were maples since I recently had to cut down a maple that was too close to power lines and wanted to transplant these to other parts of my yard. While searching on line for positive identification I noticed the virgin bower looked a bit similar but hoping its not that:)
Thanks for any help!

They are maple seedlings, though I am not sure that they are all the same kind. At a guess, the one on the left is a red maple, the one on the right is sugar or black or Norway, and I can't see enough of the one in back to tell.
