Apollo is an exceptionally social bird. He is constantly seeking out older birds and following them around. His charming, fun-loving personality combined with his impressive flight skills will serve him well in the wild. He made an unprecedented flight of 40 miles shortly after release, and so we named him after the Apollo 11 space mission that made an unprecedented flight to the moon. ​
