[the_old_crowd] Elfrida Clagg on Rowling web site

[Steve Vander Ark]

Clagg is holding a snidget, not a Golden Snitch. She was the enlightened
head of the Warlock's Council who outlawed the used of live snidget birds in
the game of Quidditch and established the Modesty Rabnott Snidget
Reservation to protect the birds. It was after this that Bowman Wright of
Godric's Hollow created the artificial "golden snitch" to replace the
endangered bird.
