ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — In a St. Petersburg house, there is a living room filled with play toys belonging to a precocious preschooler, named Apollo. The four-year-old African Grey parrot is a Guinness World Record holder. “He identified 12 things in three minutes, and that’s including snack breaks. Typically it’s four questions for a pistachio,” Apollo’s owner Dalton Mason said. From glass to paper to rocks, socks and a Shrek figurine, Apollo speaks perfect English.
