This is for an amateur photographer who wants to be able to do things like zoom in on birds in trees/get decent shots of say a batter at a baseball game from the stadium seats, etc.

I’d recommend Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM ($482). This lens is highly rated in various reviews. Image quality is good between 70-200mm. It also has image stabilization which helps to reduce blur especially shooting in long focal length.
You might want to look at the EF 24-135, the EF-S 55-250mm, or the EF-S 18-200mm.
Look at the reviews here (click on Canon Zoom Lenses and Canon EF-S lenses):

Personally I use a 70-200mm L, though you might want something a little more versatile.
I know of a neat website with zoom lenses. They have lenses by Canon, but also check out lenses by Tamron and other makers (for Canon cameras):
