Cam, by now you'll be used to the fact you'll get as many opinions as posts, but I'll offer you mine anyway.
Since you specifically mention twilight wildlife viewing, then I'm convinced you should go for the largest exit pupil, 6 mm if not 7. Twilight is the time of day when exit pupil plays the largest role in what you see.
It is no coincidence that 8x56 binoculars are popular with hunters that go out in twilight. Personally I find that my 7x50s beat anything else in twilight.
