I am going to butterfly house soon, and was wondering what the best lens to take with me. I have a Nikon 70-300vr and was wondering if this will be adequate or would I be best hiring a macro lens for the day?. Any advice appreciated.
 
You'll get the best shots with a macro lens but it takes some getting used to and to get a decent depth of field you also need a tripod or some sort of flash set up.

Having said that you can get some decent shots with a good zoom lens so I'd be inclined to stick with what you know for the moment.
 
Going from a cold outside into a warm butterfly house will steam up the lens so allow plenty of time.
