Hi Melvina,

DPP_0165 copy.jpg & DPP_0164 copy.jpg are photographs of a mayfly  
(Ephemeroptera).
DPP_0166 copy.jpg & DPP_0168 copy.jpg are of Ellychnia corrusca, a  
beetle which is the commonest lampyrid (firefly) in the province,  
although this species is a non-luminescent one.
DPP_0169 copy.jpg is a bee fly (Bombyliidae) in the genus Bombylius.
DPP_0157 copy.jpg is a wasp of some sort.

All the best!

Chris
