Yeah, pixies can into your yard in the middle of the night and planted it
for you. Its not the work of industrious birds or landscaping squirrels.
Obviously it either came in the pot of something else you bought or from a
stray seedling.

Any idea how a daylilly could get planted in my yard without me doing it?
Is
this the kind of thing birds or suirrels can bring into your yard and drop
off or bury?

Your tree IS a Sumac, most likely Rhus typhina or Staghorn Sumac. The
flower is
a red daylily, but as there are literally several 10's of thousands of
daylily
cultivars, I wouldn't presume to guess which one.

Can you help me identify this tree and this flower.
As near as I can determine from my Audobon book, the tree is some kind
of
sumac, but I could be wrong.

The flower just appeared in a flower bed this summer. I don't remember
planting it. It is on a long stem, and the plant reminds me of some
kind
of
bulb or iris plant.
