Just wondering what size of a whistle/flute collection most folk have???
Matheu 
Iāve got 9 whistles, 3 flutes (hopefully that will become a larger number 
), 4 recorders, and 3 ocarinas. My parents think that that is too many instruments, but I beg to differ.

Iāve got around 30-35 whistles, 4 flutes, a couple of re****ers tossed away in a corner somewhere and some other stuff here and there.
I have 8 whistlesā¦2 Waltons, 2 Generations, 2 Clares, 1 Clarke, and 1 Kerry Songbird 
See other responses in this similar thread:
I have the following Low Whistle Keys:
Chieftains/Kerry: 12 (D,Eb, F, G)
Overton: 1 ( D)
Howard: 1 ( D)
Silktone 1 ( D)
Burke 1 ( A)
The following are sopranos:
Chieftain: 3 ( Bb, A, D)
Dixon 1( D)
Walton LBW 1 (D)
OāBrien 1(C)
Like others on here I have several others, but these are the one which get the majority of playing time.
Iām down to 22 whistles (from a high of 24), but I now have 3 flutes.
About 50 whistles, 6 flutes, a tenor recorder and several flutes that arenāt either Boehm or simple system like quena and Native American flute.
Since I play whistle in non-Irish contexts I have quite few in keys that session-focussed musicians wouldnāt need and since I record with them I have different whistles and flutes to do different jobs.
Around about 50 whistles,Five Flutes,a Piccolo,Thirteen Recorders,*
a couple of Chinese Bamboo Trad Flutes,Bass Clarinet and Alto sax.
Oh,and a Uilleann Pipes Practice set.
As thirteen is traditionally an unlucky number,maybe I should buy another.
NO- I will NOT burn them!!! (Just trying to keep once step ahead of the anti-Rc%rd*r brigade there!! 
)
4 whistles, 2 flutes - but only one whistle and the flutes get serious playing time.
Eric
which whistle?
I have not counted recently, but I probably have over 80.
Only 6 flutes though.
I used to have a picture, but I donāt know where it is at this time.
Erik
Do people have favorite whistles in their collection?
My one whistle that gets significant playing time is my Cillian OāBrian high D. Great whistle with a very traditional sound and the sweetest second octave Iāve come across yet.
Eric
2 flutes, 2 fifes, a practice chanter, and more than 80 whistles. The Burkes get played daily and the Copelands, OāRiordans, Abells and Sindts come out to play once a week or so.

Abells: low G, A, Bb, C, D, Eb, F, high G; boxwood D (thanks, Jessie!); pink ivorywood D w/ low Cn pinky hole, LH Bb thumbhole and RH Fn thumbhole.
Skip Healy piccolo (in the wings)
And just thought Iād throw in: Casey Burns low A flute in mopane and Terry McGee Prattens keyless flute in blackwood.
I really enjoy playing my Clare Dā¦its my first and favorite whistle to play (it has a special pwace in my heart!) 
I also like my Clarkeās sweet, clean tone though it is bit of a wind hog.
My Kerry Songbird is another neat whistle but I donāt think I am quite GOOD enough and deserving to play it.
Not sureā¦ about 40 or 50 whistles: Feadogs, Gens, Clares, Doolins and Waltons all with various tweakage; also Clarke originals and Sweetones, A Dixon aluminium/plastic with brass slide, A Dixon all plastic, some Susatos, a Jerry Freeman MellowDog, and an old all-metal cylindrical Generation which comes somewhere between F and F#. Itās brass with a very worn nickel-looking plating and plays nicely. The badge dropped of a year ago and I lost it, but it definitely said Generation.
I currently have 7 whistles (all in high D).
I have 14 whistles. From high to low: 1 E, 8 D, 2 C, 1 B-flat, 1 A, and 1 G. Iām sure Iāll acquire more within this range, but I think thatās as high and as low as I want to go.
I also have a cheap plastic recorder that I havenāt learned to play yet, and a ceramic ocarina in the shape of a dove. I think I want to collect more ocarinas. Theyāre cool.
I havenāt caught the āflute bugā yet.
