Can someone identify this flower?(pic)?

Question

I planted a large assortment of bulbs a few years back(about 100 or so,several different kinds),but alas the squirrels had a feast and they were all gone,except the next year about 6 or 7 of these flowers popped up,so I assume they were in the mix,but didn't taste good to the squirrels.Can someone tell me what kind of flower it is and if it comes from a bulb?I am sure it's a fairly common one,but I am new to this so any help would be appreciated!
The pic shows them as blue,but they are actually more of a purple.Thanks in advance!

Those are grape hyacinths, Muscari sp., probably armeniacum. 

Yes they do come from a bulb.    They also will seed themselves if they are happy, so your patch may expand.  Mine pop up in odd places -- I sometimes wonder if the ants move the seeds around.

This is a grape hyacinth, an early blooming spring bulb.
