Heat gun or hair drier then a little bit of polish should bring them out mate.

I would get your car detailed properly too. Saves a load of hassle come wash time and even stubborn stains are easy to remove.

Yep, stains like birdie po*ps are acidic so you need to get rid asap, before it starts setting in and affecting paint

Birds just love dark cars.  Mines a seagull sh!t magnet.  If there are 50 cars in a car park, guaranteed mine will be the one that gets it 

I always carry a bottle of quick detailer and a microfibre in the car so I can get it off ASAP.  Polishing should get rid if the etching is not too bad.
