My <nav> is directly after the link in the header.. not sure why it's saying its not?

don't get it

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <nav>
          <ul>    
          </ul>
        </nav>
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
    </header>

is this because the link is inside (also known as nested) the nav rather than after it?

suggestion:

  <a href="index.html">
    <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
    <h2>Designer</h2>
  </a>
  <nav>
    <ul>    
    </ul>
  </nav>
