Harry Potter sees the thestrals after the death of Cedric Diggory.

He didn't see them before because when his mum was killed he was too young to understand what had happened and nobody else was killed in front of him (he has already passed out by the time Quirrel died).

Rowling considered putting them in at the end of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire but decided to wait until Harry had accepted Cedric's death so the book was not left with an unsolved mystery.
