Signs of Autumn

My collection of items over the course of this autumn:

This is a seed pod of some sort found near my parked car after school a couple weeks ago. I looked up to see a tree with these growing in it. I wonder what damage would be done if they fell on an unsuspecting passerby. The pod is a lot heavier than I expected. I included a view with my hand to show the size of the pod. If anyone has any information about the tree this is from, please let me know.







I bought this stone globe because it looks like there are galaxies inside of it. It changes every time you you move it, like there is glowing mica deep inside it. I do not remember the name of the stone, other than it started with an "O" but it is said to have properties that inspire deep reflection. Looking into its surface, I can see why.




This is the last acquisition for autumn, a white tiger resting on crystals while the Milky Way is suspended overhead.
