I'm looking for a small digital camera with good zoom and macro capabilities for nature pictures. Any suggestions?

I'm on a rather tight budget, so cost is a concern.

hello Angela
the panasonic ls80 is a great little camera for those on a tight budget.
It has 3x optical zoom ,a good macro mode and good high quality lens.
look at this flickr album to see the quality of pictures that can be achieved using a ls80.
