have a 2004 black vehicle that was parked for about a month without washing. it looks like the paint in like quarter sized spots curled up into shavings. The spots are bare metal now. Is it possible it's from bird crap or something else? i'm sick thinking it's either my mistake or my neighbors hate me and sprayed something on it.

was it recently painted? single stage or 2 stage(base coat/clear coat)?

If not, what's the make? a lot of early 2000s vehicles have paint problems.

If you're the original owner and depending on the mileage it might still be under warranty.

Bird crap will definitely do that. I had a 2013 Mazda CX-5 that I was leasing that sat under some trees and got a bunch of bird crap on the hood and it ate right through the paint. I had three 3" spots down to the metal once I got the crap cleaned off. I ended up turning the car in early and got a Mazda 3.
