I think the two on the SF are Red-shouldered Bugs ?

The insect on the corn is a Japanese beetle (Popillia japonica) - see http://www.ces.purdue.edu/CES/Marion/Images/Hort/Japanese%20Beetle%2050.JPG, the beetles on the sunflower could be net-winged beetles (Coleoptera: Lycidae - see http://bugguide.net/node/view/55643/bgimage) or fireflies (Coleoptera: Lampyridae - see http://news.uns.purdue.edu/UNS/images/turpin.fireflies.jpeg).
I have no idea as to the identity of the fly (the image is too small to see key characters).

This is a pic of my Banana, flag pole growing out of top. I must learn how to compose pictures.
