Harry nodded. "I'll probably ace them."
"Probably ace them?" exclaimed a very pale Hermione, "Neither one of you even knew about them until last night!"
"Well,"

"That would be a parliament of owls, Ronald," said Harry, he looked at Hermione, "See, I did study."
"Did you study owls?" Hermione asked incredulously.
Harry nodded slowly.
Hermione stared at the two of them blankly.
"We thought it was pretty strange at first, that such a big exam would just be on owls," said Ron.
"But that was before we found out just how important owls are to the circle of life, and the Wizarding world," said Harry.
Hermione slowly lowered her forehead to the table.
