Well, the Flute is generally quite high a reedy, but not an irritating sound, more like light, hollow tone. It's difficult to describe. When vibrato is used the tone quality has to be carefully managed so the sound comes out gentle and delicate rather than like a woodpecker.

Which is a higher pitched the piccolo or the flute?

over all the piccolo is one octave higher then the flute. Which means that the piccolo is higher but sometimes in band pieces the piccolo part is one octave down then the flute part so the piccolo will be playing in the same octave but most of the time the piccolo part will be one octave up from the flute for as example if a person plays a low b flat on the flute and an other person played the low b flat on the piccolo there will be an octave difference I hope this makes sense to you.
