From what I found, it looks like a Shooting Star

Thanks Tsheet. I was thinking "Burning Star" or "Flaming Star" or something like that and knew it was wrong. Old brain cells are hard to keep in line some day's. LOL

Very cool flower pic. I haven't seen those either, except for pictures, and they were always opened up.

Yes it is a wild flower, we found them in the woods at Camp Ondessonk. I had not seen them before ether but we found 8 or 9 in the same area.

Nice one Harry I've never seen that kind before. My kids used to go to Camp Ondessonl when they were little. Not to far from my Aunts as the crow flys.
