This should be easy to identify, but I couldn't find any matching image.

I recognized this from one of annetanne's observations! Apparently it's a European native that's been introduced in CA: http://www.calflora.org/cgi-bin/species_query.cgi?where-calrecnum=8636

Yes, looks like Leucojum aestivum to me, although there is only one flower. But it seems that some previous flowers are gone already?
(Leucojum vernum, the spring snowflake, has only one flower on a stalk.)

Thank you! There were more flowers on a single stalk as in the picture from CalFlora.
