I've been looking for sunflower beetles, and for thistle caterpillars, but haven't found either. I have found, however, a few cucumber beetles. Would they eat my sunflower leaves??

Also, most of my sunflower plants have 1-2 leaves that look almost burnt. It has been a bit windy lately, could it be wind burn? Or something more ominous? This is my first time *ever* with sunflowers.

Thanks for any advice!!
