tried to clean bird mess - bad idea!

Long story short....

Saw few days old bird droppings on the car, without even thinking about it, I wetted a soft cloth towel and tried to scrape off the hardened dropping. BAD Idea!....
Not only I see a quarter size leftover mark but several scratches in an area of 5" diameter...

Right above the headlight on the hood and looks horrible. Can't get rid of the scratches....

What to do...help?

Take it to a reputable detailer. Dealer will charge more and most likely the quality of work will be poor.
