Hello bboy_mn at yahoo.com,

In reference to your comment:

è I think the boggart changing to whisps of dark smoke
è before vanishing completely, give us a clue to it natural
è form. However, Lupin does say that no one knows for
è sure.  So, my most likely explaination for Moody's
è confidence is that he looked the desk and didn't see
è anything else he could identify, and by process of
è elimination that only left a bogart.  Just a thought.

Do you think it might be possible that when Moody's magical eye rests upon 
the boggart it takes it's form for Moody? Since no one knows exactly what a 
boggart looks like when it is alone as it changes form as soon as someone sees it, 
is it possible that it could feel Moody's eye and transform? Certainly Moody 
would have dealt with Boggarts before, thus he would know what shape/form it 
would take for him, and seeing that form,  the boggart's existence would be 
confirmed?

Just my thought
