I have never had this kind of seedling before in my yard until now, after I changed a pine straw delivery company. I don't find any kind of shrubs or trees with this kind of leaves. However, they are ALL OVER my yard wherever there is pinestraw. Can anyone tell me what this seedling is? Thanks

Something in the huge pea family.

I'll take a shot in the dark and say a Vetch(Vicia)

Looks like a perennial sweet pea to me. Best to get them out NOW.

I have those things come up by the millions every fall, winter, and early spring. It is definitely in the legume family. It will make a magenta bloom, followed by a pea chock full of seed. The roots go surprisingly deep. Pull them young.
