I can`t speak for images with such a small resolution. Give me full size.
For FF camera seems bad. You will get better shots with 70d/400 5.6 than 5d3 and 600/8.
For example:

On crop camera with 600mm you will need really tripod and good light and slow moving subject to get something....
Most of the people just say...wow it`s 900mm equv great. On the field nobody need 900mm lens. Most of super telephoto lenses above 500mm are used with FF cameras not crop. There is very big distance between the camera and the subject with crop and 900mm equiv. As i say this is usable only for small birds/subjects and close distances (when used with crop camera). For general bird photography and don`t think that many users will use this lens at 150-250mm range. More used will be 300-500 so the important think is not that the lens have reach...but if this lens are better enough at 300-500mm.
Who cares about 600 when you can not take good shot wide open at 400mm??? I prefer wide open quality without IS not IS with 600mm/f8.0. This is not reliable on the field !!!
