Hi Brian, I agree with Steve. I think you'll find this lens a lot better for birding and this pictures does appear sharper than some of the others you have posted.
It is a great lens, although mine tends to go into hibernation over the winter so will get some use in spring !
As a general rule, you may want to try using a higher shutter speed at 500mm which will help keep the images sharp, could've dropped the F-stop down to F8 and increased ISO to 800 if needed. The KX should cope with this.
Look forward to seeing some more pictures.
Regards
George
