My experience so far (with the PL 100-400) and the E-M1 II, is if I can get the initial focus lock on the bird, it really does quite well with the tracking. I'm mostly using the single focus point and I'm keeping the lens below the 300mm mark (beginner at BiF's) unless the birds are quite distant. It does a good job at tracking long distance (100yds +) even if the birds are close to the trees/brush, but at that distance the crops make getting good detail tough  Still working on that balance.

Northern Harrier shot yesterday at about 100 yds, severe crop.
