a beech tree at Hogwarts

Today's HP quest: finding all possible references to a beech tree that is mentioned at several points in the series. So far, I have:
PS/SS:
The trees were so thick he couldn't see where Snape had gone. He flew in circles, lower and lower, brushing the top branches of trees until he heard voices. He glided toward them and landed noiselessly in a towering beech tree. (chapter 13)
OoTP:
They stopped in the shade of the very same beech tree on the edge of the lake where Harry, Ron and Hermione had once spent a Sunday finishing their homework, and threw themselves down on the grass.
HBP:
Ron and Hermione were hurrying towards Harry, passing Scrimgeour going in the opposite direction; Harry turned and walked slowly on, waiting for them to catch up, which they finally did in the shade of a beech tree under which they had sat in happier times. (chapter 30)
DH:
Harry watched again as Snape left the Great Hall after sitting his O.W.L. in Defense Against the Dark Arts, watched as he wandered away from the castle and strayed inadvertently close to the place beneath the beech tree where James, Sirius, Lupin, and Pettigrew sat together. (chapter 33)
...and I'm pretty sure there's one in Goblet of Fire (perhaps the Harry/Ron/Hermione homework scene). If anyone could help with this, it would be hugely appreciated.
