Monomad: Little Guy Carrying Raindrops

This morning's rain still left small crystal balls in the weeds. Until this afternoon I noticed the raindrops had not disappeared on the grass and bushes. That was because since morning the sky was still covered in dark clouds until the afternoon. I had an idea to capture the raindrops that stuck to the leaves. The sensitive Mimosa plant caught my attention. But it seemed there was something more interesting than just capturing raindrops. I noticed a jumping spider there. It crawled slowly while its body carried the raindrops that initially stuck to the dense flower stamens. It crawled unsteadily as if exhausted from carrying the 'gallons of water'. Come on, Dude! You must be strong!
