Carry a detailing spray and microfiber/cloth with you (your choice of manufacturer) and use a sealant/wax. I alway, at the very least, either use a detailer after each wash or a sealant/wax. Bird dropping are especially hideous as they can contain various natural acids in them from the berries, and fruits birds eat. Bottom line—get that sh!t off ASAP!

I think you'll find your warranty does not cover acidic bird poo, or other envoirnmental fallout.. A good detail guy can make the damage go away though..good luck!

I second that. Unfortunately, bird crap will irreversibly screw up your paint if it is hot out and you don't get it off quickly. The same thing happened to me on a 07 black Honda Civic I owned. A detailer can help diminish the visibility of the "etching" marks, but it will never look quite the same!

Sorry this happened to you...I definitely know how you feel.
