To Which I Respond:

Dig it.  I guess I should rephrase the question.  I know that an 
ostrich may refer to "one who tries to avoid disagreeable situations 
by refusing to face them" (definition from Dictionary.com).  The 
thing is, I never associated that kind of behavior as being 
sycophantic.  So then, was Fudge a sycophant for not believing that 
Lord-Thingy had returned?  Just curious.
