Dumbledore an animagus?

Another thing
 which supports the case for Dumbledore to be an 
animagus.

PS/SS - Chapter 1.

"A man appeared on the corner the cat had been watching, appeared so 
suddenly and silently you'd have thought he'd just popped out
of the 
ground."

Hmm
 he could have apperated, but a little later on it says, when 
talking about celebrations:

"All day? When you could have been celebrating?  I must have passed a 
dozen feasts and parties on my way here."

He PASSED a dozen feasts and parties.  If he had apperated, he could 
not have PASSED.

Thus
 I conclude, that he flew or walked past these feasts.   But
if 
he walked, how did he know it was a feast, and not just someone 
playing loud music
 if he flew, then he could have seen through
the 
windows.

He did not arrive on Privet Drive with a broomstick.

Getting back to the book - "For some reason, the sight of the cat 
seemed to amuse him.  He chuckled and muttered, ` I should have 
known.' "

OK
 so Dumbledore presumably knows the form that McGonagall
takes, so 
could guess that the cat was her.  However, the cat was at the other 
end of the street - so he would not have got a close up look.

What was it that Sirius said about one animagus being able to 
recognise another.  I seem to recall something about that, in 
connection with Crookshanks.   I wonder how far away they can tell if 
the other animal is an animagus?


"Harry must have walked straight past him, so desperate to get to the 
mirror he hadn't noticed him."
Fat chance
 if Dumbledore was there in person, Harry would have 
recognised him - would he not?  If Dumbledore was hidden (for example 
as a bumblebee) then Harry would not have noticed him.

Something else to consider
 Jo has said in a number of interviews 
that Dumbledore is the old english word for Bumblebee.  Considering 
the lack of information that flows from her mouth - why, WHY, does 
she mention this.  Is it because she wants us to know that there is a 
connection between Dumbledore and a Bumblebee?

Oh and one last thing, to ponder on.

How did McGonagall know where to look, to see Dumbledore appear when 
she was sat in Privet Drive?
