The RAF/RN guide for height assessment when low flying;

At 500ft you can see the legs of cattle but not sheep.
At 250ft the legs of sheep can be seen.

Quite useful for the RN, I'd imagine, what with all those aquatic cattle and sheep!

In my experience flying over water you can see the legs of sheep and cattle at 1000ft,mainly because they're floating upside down
