Dear friends,
it is not possible to infer from the sound spectrum of the calls of a
species anything about the hearing range of this species.

Hello Ron, Bioacusticians
A large number of bird species especially hummingbirds have very high
frequencies, reaching up to 17-19 kHz.
Other examples which I studied are some finches in the genus Haplospiza and
Acanthidops whose higher frequencies are almost 13 kHz. If you want a copy
of this paper let me know
