c# initialize the TongueLength field to the value passed in.

I have copied the video in the previous segment and it looks identical to me. Can anyone see what im doing wrong?

Frog.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Frog
    {
        public readonly int TongueLength;


       public Frog(int TongueLength)
        {
           TongueLength =  TongueLength ;
        }
    }
}

C# is case sensitive. In the video, the name(s) of the constructor parameters begin with a lower-case letter. This allows the compiler to distinguish them from the property names which begin with capital letters.
