Our 25-30 year old B&G macaw does that too.  He was wild-caught.  I always 
suspected there is something about the sound that reminds him of his home in 
the jungle - maybe it sounds like a waterfall to him...?  He loves the 
noises and flashes of a thunderstorm - odd to us, since so many dogs don't 
like storms.  It's really sad to think that he was taken from the rainforest 
as a young bird.  He was about 12-15 years old when we got him though, and 
once they are here, someone has to care for them.
