"Buckbeak spat a few ferret bones onto Hagrid's pillow" - p.203

Alla:

Isn't this beatiful how this can be read as foreshadowing of 
Malfoy's  erm... transformation in GoF?


"The owls sat hooting softly down at him, at least three hundred of 
them; from Great Greys right down to tiny little Scops owls ("Local 
deliveries only') which were so small they could have sat in the 
palm of Harry's hand" - p.205


Alla:

Picking up the conversation about owls' intelligence. do you think 
there is a correlation between size and intelligence?

"There was a look of suppressed triumph about him. Harry tried to 
look innocent, all too aware of his sweaty face and his muddy hands, 
which he quickly hid in his pockets" - p.208

Alla:

No legilimency is needed here it seems LOL


"Snape eyes were boring into Harry's It was exactly like trying to 
stare out a Hippogriff. Harry tried hard not to blink" - p.208

Alla:

On the other hand maybe not :-)


"Then came Astronomy at midnight, up on the tallest Tower; History 
of Magic on Wednesday morning, in which Harry scrumbled everything 
Florean Fortescue had ever told him about medieval witch hunts, 
while wishing he could have had one of the Fortescue's choco-nut 
sundaes with him in the stiffling classroom" - p.234


Alla:

To me this is another confirmation that Harry learns well from 
anybody he likes and boy I miss Fortescue even more, man seems to be 
well educated at least under WW standards.


"No!" said Harry again, wanting  more than ever to leave the room 
and the heat. "It looks fine, it's - flying away..."

Alla:

Another little correct prediction of Harry, YAY.



"....I expect...an' executioner, Macnair, he's an old pal o' 
Malfoy's..." - p.241

Alla:

Just had a thought that Mcnair chose the profession that seems to 
fit his tastes as one of DE extremely well LOL
