ferdie and zowie

On sunny and cold, late fall day I was sitting on a bench enjoying the brisk weather when Ferdi and Zowie sat down at the other end. I said “hello.”

They were engaged in an ostentatious conversation about eastern religious philosophies.

I sat awhile longer, then decided to move on. Before I did, I asked if I could take their picture? They agreed. As I was doing so, I didn't feel like they were all that happy about it.
