Bismarck and Ravana are the only birds available from the event anyway.

I've joined Bismarck WT parties a few times, and got the whistle very quickly. If most of the party already have the mount and are there for the WT stamp, you're going to have a good chance of winning the whistle if it drops.

I don't know if it was just good luck, but I got Ravana's whistle very quickly as well.
