With the 8-power, the bird looks 1/3 larger than with the 6-power.
However, the field of view is greater with the 6x. That is to say, there is more background in the 6x.
So the image is bigger with higher magnification, but it's harder to spot the bird because you have to get right on it before you can see it. With the lower magnification, you're likely to pick up at least the edge of the bird while you're looking for it, and then you can get on it. Of course, it's pretty easy when it's an eagle against the sky, but it can be tricky when it's a little bird in a tree.
