Mystery Flower

A recent walk to the Homestead Park in York, and lots more flowers now in bloom. This rather attractive flower caught my eye. I did an internet search to identify it, but with conflicting results. If anyone can identify it I would be interested to know what it is.

It looks like I was photobombed as well.

My research says it's an erythronium, maybe erythronium grandiflorum. Looks pretty much exactly like this. Cool shot!

It’s very pretty. The curled back petals are lovely and I like the little bug you’ve captured too.

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

Thank you to those of you that suggested what this flower might be. I agree that it is a variety of Erythronium. Looking at a selection of photos online I think that Margaret is probably right and that it is Erythronium Pagoda.
