This doesn't make sense

All It says is this: Bummer! If the frog's reaction time and tongue length are the same as the fly's reaction time and its distance, the frog will eat the fly.

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

        public Frog(int tongueLength, int reactionTime)
        {
            TongueLength = tongueLength;
            ReactionTime = reactionTime;

        }

        public bool EatFly(int distanceToFly)
        {
            return TongueLength >= distanceToFly;
        }

        public bool EatFly(int FlyReactionTime, int distanceToFly)
        {
            return EatFly(distanceToFly) && ReactionTime >= FlyReactionTime;
        }
    }
}

The frog needs to be faster (or equal).

When the frog is faster than the fly, its reaction time will be less than the fly's. So the comparison should be "<=" instead of ">=".

Also, it looks like you have the arguments in the wrong order in the method declaration.

Hey Steven, I was just about to comment I saw the logic error with this. I didn't notice the method declaration. When I was trying to change the logic by making the frog faster it was still complaining. Thanks for the help!
