It's not that I don't think Harry may be a Seer, but I don't think he saw Buckbeak in the crystal ball.  From PoA Chapter 16:

Harry bent over the crystal ball and stared, stared as hard as he could, willing it to show him something other than swirling white fog, but nothing happened.

He thought of what Ron had just said, and decided to pretend. "Er--" said Harry, "a dark shape . . . um . . ."

Harry cast his mind around and it landed on Buckbeak.

I think this basically tells us that Buckbeak was the first thing Harry thought of, he clearly lets us know that he saw nothing but swirling white fog in the crystal ball.
