Witness A Grasshopper Sipping The Raindrops

I was wandering in the neighborhood after the rain stop to spot some flowers or insects that I could capture.I saw only few flowers and some insects too but not all of those were photograph because small insects are very hard to focus especially when it's windy. Later I walked to a farther distance but I didn't saw some beautiful spots to capture so I slowly headed back home. But before I reach the house, I decided to go to the bushes just a few meters from our house. I saw some bugs on the leaves of some plants but when I tried to capture it move behind the leaves. Are they shy? I don't think so. Maybe they just don't want to be disturbed that is why they hid under the leaves.

Not being able to capture those pretty bugs, I squat and find another insects. Fortunately I saw this grasshopper resting on the leaf. I captured it and observed what it was doing on its leaves. Upon observing, I noticed that it slowly moved it's head down. I thought it would move behind the leaves too just like what the bugs did but it didn't. I then realized that it was sipping the raindrops. It's my first time seeing a grasshopper sipping water. I didn't want to miss this moment so I took photos of it. Then when one raindrops were consumed, it turned around and sipped another water on the leaves.
