Just noticed this lovely little tidbit at the very end of Chapter 84:

"[Hermione] thought she heard, as she was within the doorway, a distant cawing cry. But it wasn't meant for her, she knew[.]"

What on Earth is that supposed to mean? Who or what is cawing in Hogwarts or on the grounds, and how does she know something about it that we don't? Or am I missing some terribly obvious connection here?

Fawkes.

Yes. And it absolutely was meant for her.

I'm pretty sure it was meant for Dumbledore. If it was meant for Hermione it could have just fire-ported to her.

It's done similar things before. It called her to the bullies (probably) without her seeing it.

It's plausible that that was actually Fancr, vavgvngvat uvf pbasyvpg rfpnyngvba cybg.
