I will check out the fireflies as well. I forgot to look at them earlier, thanks Dan!

I have been trying to figure out if it is a soldier beetle, net-winged or other. Unfortunately, I am not sure my images are good enough to distinguish.

Some sort of firefly I think. Maybe Pyropyga or Lucidota species, but I'm not sure.
