I have lost a bit of faith in the D500 and still prefer full frame. 
So still thinking.

I wouldn't go for a D750 for birding.
Despite what I just said about most modern DSLRs being good for our purposes, the D750 buffer was lacking.
Even taking indoor room setting shots (with copious bracketing) I found myself having to wait for the buffer to clear.

It was however one of the earliest models and SD cards were slower back then. Maybe they upgraded the firmware, perhaps newer cards have helped it? Worth testing that specific feature before buying.

Felt lovely in the hand though.

That's what endeared me to the D850...it has the same deep grip that feels more balanced in the hand than the D500 ...and many other bodies.
