Picture 1 - Not much to go on, but I'm curious about what the dark filaments in the web might be.
Picture 2 - A cricket or some kind of hopper?

Thanks

The object on the left is a cocoon of a moth, but I cannot tell exactly what kind. There are species of caterpillars of several families that construct such flimsy cocoons, often incorporating some of their body hairs. The critter on the right is a nymph of a plant bug in the family Miridae, possibly that of a tarnished plant bug - http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/english/crops/facts/12-015.htm
