Very nice bird pics!
On cropping: I recall a video of Northrup saying that a 36 MP FF sensor
in crop mode results in 16 MP, so it is better to use a modern APS-C
camera with a crop lens.

TLDR; my guess is that the 150-450 would do no worse, and in many situations
would do better.
To support that hypothesis, if the DA300 did a better job, Paul would use one
of those.
As to camera bodies: I don’t think the K-1 would give you any major advantage
when birding, because you would be mostly shooting in crop mode. It can be
handy to see what is outside of the frame, but I’ve found that my K-3 is
generally a somewhat better APS camera than my K-1. It looks as if the pixel
performance per sq mm of the K-3 iii will be significantly better than the K-1.
I certainly hope so with a 5 year newer sensor, and the overall image
performance should still be better. It should be *much* better with several
Moore’s cycles difference between the two.
To phrase Raoul Duke’s attorney, Dr. Gonzo, I’d advise you to start looking for
a good deal on a used 150-450.
