It works, and it works very very well. Fast af system helps immensely.

cant beat 15mp in dx crop mode, I use mine in fx, 1.2x crop and 1.5(dx) crop mode all the time when doing wildlife, to get the "zoom" on prime lenses. just keeps me from dealing with large files and cropping anyways in post. 4fps, kinda sucks, but 5fps in 1.2crop and 1.5 crop modes. still I haven't had any problems with mine. it works great. you would be surprised at the resolution you can still get out of a 20+ year old 500mm f4 P lens on a 36mp d800. sharp at 100% when you get focus of coarse, cause its manual.
 
Technically there is nothing wrong with the images but there is nothing really good about them either. Apart from the animals being cute you did not really capture anything. The background is kinda ugly and the images don't tell a story at all. Also why did you choose a vertical crop with the deer? There is a lot of empty space in that shot. These photos are honestly boring to me. Sorry.
