Cleaning Coat

I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and a horrible bird "did it's business" on my beautiful new red coat. I tried a baby wipe first of all - that did nothing. Then I tried sponging it with warm water with a bit of washing powder in. That has made it slightly better, but there's still a white mark :-( Any ideas of how I could shift it, without taking the colour out of the coat? I'd like to avoid the dry cleaners if I can as I find coats are never the same once they've been there and it's an expense I can do witout.
I know it's supposed to be "lucky" but I'm not so sure!
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I hadn't thought of that. Looking at it now (I'm a little ashamed to admit I am still wearing it) it seems it is more of a stain. I might have a go with the hoover later on though!
I was thinking of having a go with a stain remover but I don't want to damage the fabric. I do love the coat so if I can't get it out it'll have to go to the dry cleaners.
Thanks againMSE aim: more thanks than posts :j0
