I am with you, Dan.
Not only it would be ridiculous to DD to:
1. be kept in a cage at the Dursleys, eating scraps of food,
2. bring Harry his mail in the Great Hall while DD sits there at the
staff table,
3. sleep in the owlery, etc...
Dumbledore is a VERY busy man. He is a powerful Legilimens, and
doesn't need to be an animagus to know what goes on around him.
Talking of animagi, DD is such a politicaly-correct wizard and so
well known, that it would be obvious and safe for him to register
with the MoM as an animagus. I don't see DD "doing a Rita Skeeter"
and going around unregistered, evesdroping on people. He is SO above
that!
And last but definitely not least, every single clue that JKR gives
us makes sense and unravels at the end of the book or follows up as a
important part afterwards. If, all of a sudden, JKR turned around and
siad that DD was Hedwig, even with all refutable theories, it
wouldn't make sense.
Nineve.
