Why is the platform telling me that I have forgotten the twitter "alt text" tribute whereas it is written in the code ?

I want to put the social media link inside my footer. to do so I have put the source of my image with an alt attribute for each, but it seems that I have made an error. Could you tell me what's my mistake ? Thank's in advance.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>

You have forgotten the = sign in your alt decleration:

<img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook Logo">
<img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="Twitter Logo">
