Charlie looks around. From what he can see of them, Sprout's got her students well under way. Potter and a band of stragglers are making their way towards the Quidditch pitch, and he saw Bones and her group rounding the greenhouses some time ago. He assumes that the group with the Devil's Snare to tackle have tucked into that project.
As for his students, well.
Malfoy, Granger and their lot are busy shrieking and batting at the trees with various implements. So far, the Clabberts seem to have the upper hand. Parkinson's bunch have dragged their gear half way across the lawn, but it looks as if they're still just sorting through their equipment and dickering over the instructions. He'll have to check on them sooner than later.
He can see Longbottom and Brown following after Su Li; they are halfway up the slope to the Owlery tower. And Zabini? Still leaning against the wall of the rose garden, watching Parkinson's group argue.
