In the first DA meeting at the Hog's Head, there's quite a big FLINT.  Susan 
Bones asks Harry about his ability to create a corporeal stag patronus and Lee 
says he never knew that...frankly they *all* should know this unless they 
weren't at the Quidditch match in PoA when he produced the one that went after 
Malfoy.  Now, we know the whole school turns out for these matches, and that DD 
commented at the end of PoA about the unusual form (the stag, which James used 
to be as an animagi) his patronus took when it charged Malfoy. Lee was 
definitely there, as he always does commentary.  And I highly doubt that people just 
didn't realize it was a Patronus, after all, upper-level students do learn 
about these, so they at least would've known and probably passed the word among 
the rest of the students if it was such a big deal, which JKR clearly shows us 
in OOP that it is.
