Need some help on why my links aren’t positioned where they should be.
Only the :first-child seems to be aligned where it should.

* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

body {
  min-height: 100vh;
  background-image: url(images/bgimage.avif);
  background-size: cover;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-position: center;
  font-family: 'Segoe UI', Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
}

nav {
  background-color: white;
  box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}

nav ul {
  width: 100%;
  display: flex;
  justify-content: flex-end;
  align-items: center;
  list-style: none;
}

nav li {
  height: 50px;
}

nav a {
  height: 100%;
  padding: 0 30px;
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  color: black;
  text-decoration: none;
}

nav a:hover {
  background-color: #f0f0f0;
}

nav li:first-child {
  margin-right: auto;
}

<nav>
  <ul>
    <li>
      <a href="#"><img src="images/oms.png" style="height: 45px;"></li>
    <li><a href="#">Services</li>
            <li><a href="#">About</li>
            <li><a href="#">Contact</li>
        </ul>
    </nav>

Only the first child is sitting inside the navbar, while all other list items are sitting below.

Any help would be great. Thanks a lot!

At first I thought it could be because I had a size set to an image.
I removed the image from question, and then the next list item became first child but the problem still existed for the remaining elements.

I tried setting the margin to 0 for nav a elements, still no luck.

Once I closed the a tags, everything worked out fine....

Thank you anyone who took the time to try and provide assistance.
