Nodding flowers are best adapted for the long hummingbird beak. Hummingbirds intrigue with their tiny bodies and rapidly fluttering, buzzing wings. They are a joy to watch and planting a garden to attract hummingbirds is rewarding. When planning, there is more to consider than color when choosing plants.
So, while pretty much everyone can hear frequencies of 8,000 Hz, most people over the age of 40 canât hear 15,000 Hz. Note that YouTube has compressed this video so, unfortunately the 19,000 Hz frequency has been lost. But that doesnât matter to me because I didnât come anywhere close to being able to hear it. Sigh. Go and watch the video above to find out how young (or old) your ears really are and prepare to be depressed.
If you are unable to detect sounds quieter than 90dB HL, the hearing loss is considered a profound hearing loss for those frequencies. If the average of the frequencies at 500Hz, 1000Hz, and 2000Hz is 90dB or higher, the person is considered deaf. A person who is hard of hearing can have a range of hearing loss from mild to severe. It should be noted that amplification technology is available for people with mild to profound hearing loss.
