Alan, I've got squirrels and birdies flitting around out there, and if the weather wasn't so dead gray and dim, I'd go out there and shoot you something. The snapshot below from the other day is lousy, but it gives a hint of what this gear can do. If I didn't know I had about the best monitors out there, I'd probably doubt them before I would doubt the gear.
I would suggest you doubt your gear less and go out and shoot up a storm with it, starting with the simple and easy and work your way up into the more tricky stuff. That hi-res 1.6 crop factor will do great things, but you need to multiply everything times two, including care and effort, to get the most out of it. Cheap "reach" is not cheap in many other ways than cost.
Also: Hair, feathers, fibers, grass, leaves, etc. can vibrate in movement, the wind, whatever, at very high speeds, so if you want to freeze them too, you can be looking at very high shutter speeds. Your doggie there, for example has very fine hair, so I wouldn't expect much detail in his coat with him dashing around like that.
