The Golden Snitch is walnut-sized,as was the Golden Snidget.It is bewitched to evade capture as long as possible.There is a tale that a Golden Snitch evaded capture for six months on Bodmin Moor in 1884,both teams finally giving up in disgust at their seekers' poor performances.Cornish wizards familiar with the area insist to this day that the Snitch is still living wild on the moor,though I have not been able to confirm this story-(Quidditch Through the Ages,Kennilworthy Whisp See More pg.48 under The Golden Snitch)
