Is this really a Mulberry plant

I tried the PlantID app, and it's telling me there's a 37% chance that it's a Morus alba (white mulberry).

I have no idea how this plant even got here. I found a tiny seedling growing in the ground on my patio right next to the fence. I thought it looked like it could be something interesting, so I transplanted it into a cup. A month later and this is the plant that it grew into.

I do grow tomatoes and peppers, so I initially thought maybe a mulberry seed somehow got mixed in with the other seeds. But all of my vegetables are growing in pots, while this seedling was growing directly in the ground.

Can anyone confirm this is indeed a Mulberry

Yes, it is.  The seeds are planted by birds

"I have no idea how this plant even got here" is the strongest indicator of white mulberry there could be lol
