I have two of these visitor plants in the garden. ID comments seems to favour a type of cherry sapling, but if so, what type of cherry?

As its from seed, anyone's guess. You could narrow the choices if you knew where the seed came from but even then, it will not have the same genetics as its parent.

They sprouted there this spring, not planted by me, hence my curiosity. We are making over a weedy area, adjacent to
the buildings parking lot, into a mostly native pollinator patch. I'm used to rogue weeds, and about a million ailanthus sprouts, but nothing as exotic as what appears to be two cherry saplings. Perhaps a bird dropped them.
I think they might be chokecherry however I'd like some expert confirmation on this,

Maybe a Prunus cerasus, Morello cherry
