These are black walnuts shortly after having fallen off the tree. They grow wild in the south eastern United States. Inside the green hulls you will find the hard shell with the walnut "meat" inside.

I don't know what type of walnut trees we have here in California but there are a couple of them on the property where I live and the hulls look just like those in your photo. The crows love the walnuts. They pick them up and drop them on the driveway so the walnuts will break open. They like to do this early in the morning and they are loud and quite brave. I think they are cawing "breakfast is served". Even if I go outside they keep at it unless I get too close, then they caw even louder at me. Sometimes they miss and drop walnuts on my roof. Some mornings there are 20 crows out there, bombing us with walnuts. I haven't been personally hit yet but I might start wearing a helmet.
