Weird!
It really does, but what a nice composition!
I did place them a little closer together for this picture but only the pine is really out of place (introduced). The grey leaves are 'gum tree' (Eucalyptus regnans), the exuva is from a huge local 'Green grocer' cicada (Cyclochila australasiae) and the claw is from a 'yabby' (Cherax destructor). They were all found within that square metre of ground though... but it sure does make a weird looking mix doesn't it.
What an odd collection!
