Isn’t a whistle really just an imitation of a bird sound? I am not sure I understand the question.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Birds chirp and tweet. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Birds. ETA: What is your definition of a whistle? Birds chirp and tweet. lol So your definition of whistle is basically “the high pitched sound that humans make, by expelling air through pursed/tight lips?” Then yes, humans are the only animals that whistle. |

Made the mistake of watching “The Battle of Britain” with my African gray in the same room. She IMMEDIATELY picked up the sound of a whistling bomb dropping....and is now a regular part of her routine. She can most definitely whistle.

Whistle:
a clear, high-pitched sound made by forcing breath through a small hole between partly closed lips, or between one's teeth. Apparently, you need lips or teeth to do it. That rules out birds. |

I'm thinking birds are the original "whistlers" and humans carefully parse their lips and imitate them...

Quoted: I think so. Other animals can make whistle like sounds, but I don't think they can actually whistle. There is......one of the members here have whateveritis living in the woods on and around his property. He whistled, it whistled back. |

The Cambridge definition is as follows:
Whistle to make a high sound by forcing air through a small hole or passage, especially through the lips, or through a special device held to the lips:He whistled as he worked. On the days when she wore a skirt the men on the construction site would whistle at her. Someone was whistling Beatles tunes outside my window. The referee whistled and the game was over. Cite: https://www.google.com/amp/s/dictionary.cambridge.org/us/amp/english/whistle By that definition birds certainly do whistle. They do so via an anatomical feature specific to birds called the syrinx. |

That rules out birds. Now you're trolling. You've been given multiple examples of animals whistling and your digging in your heels, covering your ears and closing your eyes. Stop it. |
