This flower has randomly sprouted in my yard, it appears to be a bulb but I could be wrong

Does it have leaves? Naked ladies and hurricane lilies are popping up right now...

Note that the OP is in Australia where it's springtime.

One of the many colours of Sparaxis tricolor:

Note the papery calyx:

By the way, any other ID questions would best be posted to the Plant Identification forum - see link in the instructions.
