Ok these look simple enough to deal with...
The first step I would try is to rehydrate the organic compounds that are left on the surface. Lay a wet towel over the spots impacted by bird droppings to rehydrate and then attempt to remove the rest of the organic compounds with clay bar and clay lube solution (I use diluted Optimum No-Rinse car wash for this btw).
If that doesn't work, or you can still see the droppings then move on to a polish. You should try the least abrasive option first, and I never recommend toothpaste for the record. I would second the suggestion of M205, if you can see it working but still isn't up to your standards think about keeping with 205 but moving to a firmer pad. If you just can't get there, hit it with M105 *but* you need to follow this step up by polishing everything down with M205 because 105 doesn't finish nearly well enough for such a deep color (or, at all.. don't let anyone tell you different!). If that STILL leaves the bird droppings, you will need to wet sand. It's not as scary as it sounds, just go slow/keep wet/use a foam block under the paper. But... before you do that, come on back and get some more advice.
Always work least abrasive to most abrasive! Should be easy enough.
Totally agree on the wet sanding! Don't be afraid. I did most of the flat spots on my entire car last Aug. started with 2500 then went to 3000 checking results "often" . It all polished up nice. You just have to take your time. Just used Menzurna 3800 polish prior to my CQuartz UK application Patrick GT....and it was incredible. Black car and got rid of ALL swirls and surface scratches. I reworked one on the trunk until it was gone completely. Isn't have to worry about bird shit or tree sap or bugs or road tar!! Ceramic Coating is the only way to go.
