Most likely.

They regularly "taste" their surroundings. Make sure your hydrating this little guy properly.

they stick their tongue out because...

lizards also snakes taste the air, really what im trying to say is they smell with their tongue they stick their tongue out like u said and they capture the smell molecules in the air and take it into their mouth and transfer that smell into their brain and their brain then tells them what they were smelling. and thats why snakes and lizards stick their tongue out

Water bowls are no good in a Bearded Dragon's cage. They raise the levels of humidity and are a breeding ground for bacteria! Also, you should be misting your dragon OUT of his cage.

Bearded Dragons are DESERT type reptiles and require a bone dry environment.

I recommened that you take the spray bottle, and just use it to drop waterdroplets on his nose untill he drinks it up. Offer this a few times daily. I also recommend that you bathe your dragon in 90 F degree water about 1-2 times a week (To test this, if you don't have a Tempgun, ect. Try the wrist, 'baby bottle' tester. Where you run the water over your wrist to see that it is warm, not hot!) This also helps keep them hydrated, and they usually like it too! Just make sure the water is no deeper then up to the dragon's elbows to prevent drowning.

water

Actually bearded dragons have pretty large range of environments, you are correct that they need warmth, but i don't believe bone dry is correct. They come from semi-arid/montane regions and have access to water quite frequently. Mine seem to enjoy drinking out of a dish, and the humid Iowa summers have never done them any harm.
