Canon RF 100-500mm Should I or Not

Do mostly Nature photography in Costa Rica and other tropical countries.  It's a hobby, not a profession.

Currently I am pairing my Canon 100-400mm ver. II with my Canon R6 using the adapter.  Generally I'm satisfied.  However, now that the 100-500mm is available for mirrorless (at $2900) I'm debating whether I should sell the 100-400mm to buy the 100-500mm.  I figure the net effect in terms of $$ will be around $1500.

Is it worth it?  Will I see "noticeable" improvement in my images in your opinion?

Thank You.
