When Harry is taking his exam for Divination he makes up what he sees in the crystal ball:
Page 323:
Quote:

“A hippogriff”
“Indeed! My boy you may well be seeing the outcome of poor Hagrid’s trouble with the Ministry of Magic! Look closer…. Does the hipofriff appear to… have its head?”
“Yes”
“Are you sure? Are you quite sure, dear? You don’t see it writhing on the ground, perhaps, and a shadowy figure raising an axe behind it?”
“No!”
“No blood? No weeping Hagrid?”
“No! It’s fine, it’s- flying away…”
“Well dear, I think we’ll leave it there… A little disappointing… but I’m sure you did your best.”

Harry was actually right. Buckbeek was going to have his head chopped off, but Harry went back and stopped it! I thought that was kind of neat.
A small thing that doesn’t deserve its own topic:
Page 177, during the quiditch match:

There was another clap of thunder, followed immediately by forked lightning.

Does anybody else see the error? You would have to see it before you heard it, light travels faster than sound.

A bunch of Harry and Ron's predictions come tue, it's awesome, lol.



And yeah, that is weird. I thought at first she was trying to say that both things were happening in rapid succession, but it look as if she might have confused the two. Or her editors did, anyway,

Spoiler:

Trelawny is half fraud and half real because of prophecy.
