Talking Parrot Learning to Count 

Apollo is right. Those black grains of rice do look like bugs 😬

"I know exactly what a B L O C K is, but I've never seen this specific one before, so it is obviously going to attack me."

I think of this bird every time I eat a pistash

My daughter was wearing the manga glass shirt yesterday and I couldn’t believe how many people were like It’s APOLLO!!

My favorite Apollo clip is the one where he says "Touch Purple" over and over again. I find myself repeating "Touch Purple" when I'm out and about.

When you put the "hat" on soleil she didnt move or even blink for like 6 full seconds lol

- What's this called? - Like - What's this made of? - Love

Solei looks like she had an existential crisis the moment the hat descended. And then her brain rebooted.

Apollo *REALLY* loves the number four 😂

1:01 actually caused me to laugh out loud. The way his fellow bird moves into the frame and having Apollo explain them the walnut he's holding is a bug.

Every time I see anything made of glass now I immediately think "GLASS" in the deadpan way Apollo says it 😂 It's the cutest thing 🥰

Typical Apollo acting like a lens cap at the beginning of the video

Goodness, it's like 3 toddlers roaming around on the kitchen counter. 😂

Its funny how when you started to cohnt the rice, you started with "one" and Apollo immediately said "four". He knows the two words are associated, despite not having the order, which is cool!

Throw bottle + Fire = Molotov cocktail

Him saying hat is so stinking cute

1:50 I love how he has a ''task failed to execute'' sound

I cannot with his facial expressions; His eyes are just staring into my soul, I feel violated LMAO 😭

1:58 Apollo knows a Borg cube when he sees one.

You're asking for trouble leaving a book about how to make slingshots open around Apollo.

I love how much Apollo gets fixated on certain words. it seems that he is currently fixated on "four" and "it's a bug", which is super cute! 😍maybe he wants 4 bugs? 🐛🐛🐛🐛

"ya make the wrong sounds" true parrot owner

Idk if you guys will even see this, but you guys should make sure that tank is somewhere it doesn't have any overhang. Hanging off the edges like that causes stress points and the tank will eventually crack!

I love Apollo's thumbnails; He's reading a book about counting to number 4, lol.

Apollo doesn’t want to earn a Snack, he wants to earn FOUR 😂

I love the girls walking up like 👀 as soon as Apollo cracked open that walnut

1:02 "its a bug" Apollo found a glitch in the nut

Apollo dancing to "pop popop pop pop" is what makes my day without fail ❤

☺Apollo answered correctly "bowl" , so cute . He searched for a familiar object .A pistash for it .

its a constant joy watching the amount of energy you guys put into your kids, i mean birds

The way he says "hat" is my favourite! 🥰

I think it’s amazing that he knows 4 is a number.Tori said 1… and then Apollo said 4. He’s really a very special little guy.❤

Never seen a parrot "shake" before

The "rock?" into "shrock?" wombo combo at 2:09 is way too funny. Apollo is my favorite comedian!

Can I hire Apollo as my bookkeeper? He really knows how to handle a book!

We may need a compilation of Apollo saying “metal”

Solei with the hat just made my afternoon

The thumbnail is GOLD

I'm so glad he's back online! I missed him! ❤

He's such a charming birb. Getting smarter and smarter every day.

The fact he nods every time you ask something and you're correct is crazy

0:55 there is NO THOUGHTS goin in that smooth brain

Soleil gets all up in Apollo's face. Fearless

"What's this called?" "Rock?" "It's made of rock" "s h r o c k"

I saw the black cube next to Apollo and was reminded of Harvey from Rusty Lake Cube Escape!!

3:39 apollo took that personally

I love how he keeps trying “four” because of how excited it made you the first time

You can tell Tori is a bird mom, she knows all the birds favorite sounds and how they like things. It’s perfect that her name means bird in Japanese

I am genuinely in love with Apollo’s voice

I love that Apollo's favorite book is called "How To Survive A Bear Attack" 😂 🤣

I loved Soleil accepting her hat fate

Apollo was just "hitting the book" like any good student.

Apollo is scared of the *BOX*

Apollo was scared of block 🦜🕋

It's made of rock, the only logical next step is Shrock! Good boy Apollo!

It's nice to meet you, friend. Apollo is such an intelligent African Grey!! I was so impressed at how he knew the differences between paper, metal, and glass! You have a birdie genius on your hands!! He is so good at communicating! I love how he even shakes his head "Yes"! So impressive!! Thank you very much for sharing! Watched in full! I am going to share this awesome video! I wish you all continued success and happiness always. 💕🦜🦜🦜🌹🌺🌻

Really missed Apollo and sisters! What a wonderful trio they are ! I so enjoy these videos , thank you for sharing 😊❤

Any time any sort of insect is mentioned now, my mother says "It's a BUG"

The thumbnail is so funny 😂

my mom always made fun of my birds nice flat head too, said it made them dumb. But apollo has one too, and both are intelligent birbs. I like how he mistakes the rice for bugs, just like how I do lmao

3:28 He tried to do a bottle flip 😂

Soleil is just excited to be here

Babe wake up, there's a new Apollo vid

I love the way all your birds get along!

Damn I love that bird!

So glad you guys are back. I was worried for a bit that something happened to Apollo

"I'm famous now, I can chew on whatever I want!!"

It sounds like Apollo's growling around 1:29.

*brings out ominous black cube* "You're scared of it?"

He is so smart!!!❤

I often walk around the house saying things like, "what's this?" Rock. "What's this made of?" Paper 😂😂😂

Apollo!!!!! ❤❤❤

They are all so cute ❤❤❤❤❤

0:16 "you got games on your phone? "

I just discovered this channel and wow this is amazing! It is so cool how you teach them and how intelligent they are!!

Apollo requires The Very Hungry Caterpillar be ready to him like he's a good kid since he be in school most the day.

Lolol Solei slowly yeeting the hat.

Reading bedtime stories: "Daaaaad, you aren't making the sounds right!" 😂

“Wow!! Soleil hat!!” Soleil herself, “ …✨👸………..”

Always fun to watch what's up with Apollo & other birdies 🙂 I like the way you interact with them. Good week 🧘🍵

Hello Apollo. Fantastic video. Thank you. God bless.😊

I was waiting for "shrock" 😂🤣😂

"I can only count to four. I can only count to four. I can only count to...*guitar*...FOOOOUUURRRRR!!!!!" Yes, that's a real song.

"This is rock" Apollo: TF IS THAT?!

Your caiques are to cute! I actually have a caique of my own named Jackie! He has never been around other birds but he seems like he would get along with the girls!

Apollo is a great big brother with the walnut

Soleil and her tiny hat 😭💕

I'm starting to get the impression that Apollo has a favorite number.

he need another one who can argue with him: - it's made of glass - no, it's a paper - no, parrots, this is a plant...

❤ the other birds are very adorable too 😍 soooo beautiful!!!

I saw a video of Two Green Floofs with the song "I can only count to 4" and it would be PERFECT to pair with apollo 😂 PLEASE MAKE THIS VIDEO

I love watching Apollo he's so cute 🥰

Wanna earn a snack? Apollo: Four? Apollo has learned the new skill of haggling! 😂

i like when tori explains something about apollo like this is dalton's first time playing with him

I have a suggestion about teaching apollo how to count. During my psych education in uni I've been very interested in numerical cognition and in animal behavior. Humans and other animals intuitively perform subitizing - they can immediately and accurately tell the quantity of something, if the number is small enough. For humans, it is up to 4, max 5. Some birds can do it for larger quantities. This happens without any counting involved. Therefore, Apollo should already be able to distinguish quantities. However, teaching him ordinal numbers will likely prove much harder. I think that Apollo would more eagerly learn to answer the question 'How many?' after being shown 1-4 items (maybe even more), but will have trouble learning that after one comes two, then 3, then 4 and so on.

"Want rock?" "Shrok!?" "Rock." *leaves

If Apollo ever needs a kidney, I've got him.

0:49 "Why are we here? Just to suffer?"

Apollo is hitting the books^^

Every time he says four? I lose it
