Hello,

When Harry goes to take the History of Magic O.W.L, there's a detail 
that seems a little weird. p. 725, "It was several seconds before it 
occurred to him that he had not taken in a word of it; there was a 
wasp buzzing distractingly against one of the high windows."

Any entomologists out there? 

It seems like a weird place to mention a buzzing wasp inside of 
Hogwarts, especially considering Harry's behavior and the events 
during this exam. Perhaps this wasp is an animagus?

Out,
lb
