Default Seedling trees

Walnuts have a tap root, so it's best to put them in their intended location
while they are still small.

Hi,

I have a big 'ole walnut tree in my yard, its great. I was mowing,
and I noticed what looks like a little tiny walnut tree seedling
around the base of it.

I decided not to just mow it down this time..

Is it possible to pot that little guy and let it get bigger and then
transplant it?

I know at 50 I will never live to see it get the size of the other
one, but who the heck plants trees for themselves, anyway?
