No.Limberger responds:
There are also the owls that deliver mail.  This is the first known instance
of anything flying into Hogwarts grounds, which includes an owlery.

I would suspect that there was no perceived danger from someone
flying onto Hogwarts grounds as the preferred method of travel by
LV and DE's is apparition.  Granted, this would be a security breach,
but since LV was essentially powerless for SS, PS and PoA and
since the DE's were hiding, permitting flying into Hogwarts at that
time was okay.
