If you are doing sports, birds and wildlife - it's hard to beat a Sony mirrorless. Their hybrid AF sensors are extremely fast, excellent tracking, and up to 80% sensor coverage with AF points. Only problem is that you won't see an M4/3 camera from them, but the APS-C cameras - the A6500 in particular - is very good.
I use full frame Nikon gear, but have been thoroughly enjoying my RX10M4 since last December. I have used it in every way I would normally use my DSLRs and thanks to it's 8.8 to 220mm lens which provides a field of view equivalent to a 24-600 mm zoom on a full frame camera, I find it quite reasonable, even up to ISO 1600, despite the 1 inch sensor. Oh, and it only weighs 2.5 lbs.
