Can you explain me this strange behaviour of c# with optional arguments?

C# optional parameters on overridden methods

This is the output of the following code:

Peter: -1
Peter: 0
Fred: 1
Fred: 1

Can you explain me why the call of Peter p.TellYourAge() and p.DoSomething() is not identical?

Here the code to try it yourself (VS2010 and FW 4):

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Peter p = new Peter();
        p.TellYourAge(); // expected -1, result: -1
        p.DoSomething(); // expected -1, result: 0

        Fred f = new Fred();
        f.TellYourAge(1); // expected 1, result: 1
        f.DoSomething(); // expected 1, result: 1

        Console.ReadKey();
    }
}

public abstract class Person
{
    public abstract void TellYourAge(int age); // abstract method without default value
}

public class Peter : Person
{
    public override void TellYourAge(int age = -1) // override with default value
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Peter: " + age);
    }

    public void DoSomething()
    {
        TellYourAge();
    }
}

public class Fred : Person
{
    public override void TellYourAge(int age) // override without default value
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Fred: " + age);
    }

    public void DoSomething()
    {
        TellYourAge(1);
    }
}
