From what I understand is that cropping is common for birding

No, only amateurs are commonly cropping.

due to the situation and reach of the lens.

Then you have made errors before - knowledge and perseverance does get you very far, especially when birding. If your focal length doesn't suffice then you need to think your way around this constraint - compositional cropping isn't a solution, it's a problem all by itself because it puts you into a wrong mindset...
