SSSusan:
"Aggie, there were times when Rita was present in her beetle form--by
the lake after the TWT task, in the hospital wing when Hermione
catches her, for instance--but there were other times when a bee or
wasp was present, and it's these vmonte's asking about. As usual,
I'm sneaking a peek at the boards while at work & away from books, so
I can't provide specifics of the bee encounters. Was one of them
outside the Divination classroom window, or was that another Rita
appearance?"


DuffyPoo:  
There was a "wasp buzzing distractingly against one of the high windows" when Harry & Co were writing their History of Magic exam.  Perhaps this is what vmonte was referring to?
