Hi there! You have one tiny mistake and what appears to be a typo. They want the fill to transition over 1 sec. You're trying to do your transition over 0.1 seconds. Also, you need to tell it it's the fill you're transitioning. Take a look:

.star-bg{ transition: fill 1s;}

Happy coding! :sparkles:
