Interesting. I went and checked mine and couldn't find any holes like that. A while back I was getting nearly perfect circular holes in my oranges and it turned out to be a woodpecker!

I found a second one. I split it open and there is a very small caterpillar living inside. I have no idea as to what mama looked like.
