Two problems:
1. How would you explain the scene in OOP where Hedwig is intercepted 
and injured-and has to be taken away for healing for a few days?  Was 
Dumbledore injured, too? 
2. Dumbledore had very little contact with Harry in all of OOP 
because he feared Voldemort would sense him now that the 
Harry/Voldemort bond was stronger.  Harry himself felt like "striking 
out" (like a snake) at Dd briefly before being transported via the 
port key after A. Weasley's injury.  If Dumbledore was Hedwig, surely 
Voldemort would have sensed it by now through his "link" with Harry 
and Harry/V. would have struck out at Hedwig?

A.G. (who would like to believe this-but needs to get past the above 
issues)
