Expert Response

Everywhere that I have researched this picture I get back - Maple.  It would seem strange that you would have an infestation of maple seedlings unless you have a tree close by.  If so, these seedlings usually don't live long especially with the current cold spell we are having.

If there is no maple tree close I'm at a loss as to what this plant it.  

If you have an Extension Office near you might consider taking a sample in to them to review.

I'm sorry I wasn't more help.
