what type of flower is this?

it is white with a yellow center and when you pluck it a ton of orange colored liquid comes out and stains your hand. i found a whole patch of them recently and am just wondering what type of flower this is.

It's Bloodroot. The Indians used it to paint their faces with because of the liquid. It's a very pretty flower that only blooms in the spring. If they're close to your house, leave them and enjoy them.

Here's a link with a picture:
