Why does my macaw only talk in the bathroom? How to make her talk elsewhere?

Question

Our Macaw only talks while we are in the bathroom with the shower running. She talks non-stop in there but not while on her perch. Doesn't depend on time of day. So, how can we get her to talk in other places? Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Female | 16 years and 11 months old | 10.44 lbs

She may be more comfortable in a smaller room or she likes the bathroom acoustics (we all sound better in the shower!). Talk to her and with her everywhere. There's no forcing her to talk back but she may begin to mimic you in other rooms. Praise and reward her when does talk and be patient.
