Enjoy. The start of the piece:

A bird conservation charity was locked out of Twitter after posting about woodcocks.

The British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) lost access to its account after messaging followers about the endangered wading bird.

Attempts to contact Twitter fell on deaf ears until BBC Birdwatch presenter Chris Packham tweeted the US firm to reinstate the ‘well-respected’ organisation.

The account took flight again after eight days – followed by a tweet from Twitter’s owner Elon Musk who wrote: ‘Most ironic thing I’ve read in a while. How much wood could a woodcock…’

The BTO is understandably concerned about the risks posed by tits, shags, cocks and boobies.
