I'd say "nature magician" myself. The magic is important to the concept, and the religious elements aren't particularly.

And I think the D&D version is the primary definition these days - the fantasy fiction and computer games that use it that way are way more mainstream than the new-age and neo-pagan uses, and given how little we actually know about historical druids, you can't even make much of a case those are more authentic.
