Bit more detail required, sounds like bird sh!te has eaten into top coat. A decent machine polish would sort it.

I'd say that's a slug trail or something like that. My mate had something very similar on the bonnet of his Superb. I clayed that for him and it came off in no time. Don't forget to seal and wax it afterwards.
