Hi everyone! Today's GAPP is Birds' Nest, a genre I invented for day two of Enigmarch, a month-long puzzle creation challenge, just four days ago! I hope you enjoy it! Thanks to the GAPP team (and Eric in particular) for help wording the rules!
Since there is only one non-GAPP one of these in existence, whether you get a sloth on today's GAPP is less determined by experience with the genre and more on how well you're able to adapt to something new!

Rules: Draw lines connecting the centers of some orthogonally adjacent cells to form a single connected, non-looping network of lines which uses every cell. Four-way branches are not allowed. Each dead end is marked with a number, indicating the distance along the path from its location to the nest's (marked with a circle).

As always, an example puzzle and its solution are attached to the image of today's puzzle. Solve the example here (Penpa+): https://tinyurl.com/2h6nzrof
