I don't know how many different grasshoppers are here, but there's a lot of them. The only one I've made much effort to identify and remember has been the Differential. You can Google 'differential grasshoppers' images and find a lot of photos of them. They are the ones that have been and are the most destructive. They are here in large numbers and have voracious appetites. I really hate them. There are a lot other grasshoppers, but they don't seem to damage things very much. The orchid may be a form of vegetation that a couple of those different ones do like. One that has eaten on the orchid should be easily identified, but the smaller one has a generic look to it that may make it difficult to identify.
