How do I add list items within the <nav> tag?

Challenge task 2 of 3: Inside the navigation element, create three list items with the words, “Portfolio”, “About”, and “Contact”. Don’t add links yet.

I'm not sure what's wrong.

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

          <li>Portfolio</li>
          <li>About</li>
          <li>Contact</li>
        </nav>
        <ul>

        </ul>

        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

I put the list items inside the ul tag but it still says "Task 1 is no longer passing." Here's what I have:

<nav> <ul> <li>Portfolio</li> <li>About</li> <li>Contact</li> </ul> </nav>
