Tamron 70-300/4-5.6 VC USD.
Excellent image quality even at 300mm (but beware the heat shimmer / haze - in my experience these really limit the outdoor shooting at longer distances). It has its slight mechanical shortcomings (no weather sealing, zoom lock or focus limiter, the rings rotate the Nikon way - see for yourself how much these matter to you) but for the price, I can't (and won't) complain. It doesn't have the obvious "cut corners" like the Canon 70-300 non-L (rotating front barrel, precipitous drop in image quality towards the long end...) Indoors, it's fantastic.
Thanks, heat haze not much of an issue in England! Maybe three days a year!
