Thinkin of purchasing SLR camera

I am hoping to get some imput about these two cameras for mainly outdoor pics. Lots of orchids, fishing, nature, wildlife, weather. Although my camera, a Canon G7 takes great outdoor pics, I would like something that I can get the best macro shots and if I get other benefits from it that's great too.
1. Canon Rebel XS EF-S 18.55IS Kit $599.00
2. Nikon D40 SLR 18.55mm & 55-200 $599.00
These are the 2 cameras I'm considering The Nikon comes with that second lens or minus the extra lens for $499. Any experience with either of these 2 would be appreciated since you guys take a lot of the same type pics. Thanks.
