No, no! No irritation -- and my bad! I didn't see the hole. Maybe you could mention it in the notes and add it back to the mission. Sorry!
Ursula
Sorry Ava. I thought it belonged into that mission, because it has it's hole, it's "nest" behind it on a picture ... Hope I did not irritate you by adding it there. Btw, I'm removing it.

Can you remove this spotting from the nests, hives, bowers mission please? Thanks.
