I vouch for both.
Currently mystic trees arent as popular as when they first launched but i still see a consistent 6-7 people there at any given times, which ends up to a lot of people just running around for any tree that is up. However, with the change to how nests are dropped (from per log instead of per tree) people will not have the need to tell people that they should just stay to a few trees this would in turn remove the need to add them to donator areas, etc.
I like the first suggestion especially because given how rare the pet is i think having the addition of allowing it to pick up / bank nests for you would make it a more sought after pet especially if it can be applied to both normal nests and eagle nests.
