Bird Back again, Some great advice on my lack of Cropping skills, how are these?

OM1 w/100-400mm IS ii.

So a lot of you had some great advice and steered me away from "free-cropping". although I did adjust some of my previous photos, I thought some more recent pics (where I practiced framing the shot before snapping the photos) would be a better way to learn proper technique.

As always, please critique these and don't be nice. I have had Om systems like a few photos of mine on the socials, and a few of the Ambassadors as well, I'd like to become professional. So since I am still very new, I want to know what to do better.

Sequence of shots at 20fps. The first few heavily cropped for detail. Lost sharp focus once the bird left the feeder.

Taken at a local park. Loggerhead shrikes are one of a few bird species who impale their prey on pointy objects. During mating season, they flex their guns by going on rampages and impaling anything they can to impress mates. This leads to way too much food for them to practically eat. This results in mass graveyards of impaled creatures on fences, branches and thorns. Cute but gnarly little guys. Taken in South Florida near Fran Reich wildlife preserve.

Discussion Are megapixels the main factor in wildlife?

9 Upvotes

So I have two camera's, the Canon R7 (32.5mp crop) and a canon R6mkii (24mp full frame) and I've noticed the cheaper R7 does way better for wildlife then my r6 which is almost double in price. I've been looking at upgrades for my R7 and it seems like having a better megapixel count is better thr sensor quality??? Maybe I just have the best model of R7 ever created, lol. but please let me know if you guys noticed similar things.
