How do you maintain your car between washes?

Hey guys just curious what you do to maintain a clean car in between washes when the following happens:

-bugs splatter on your bumper/hood/window/side mirrors

-it rains

-birds defecate on your car (paint or windows)

-dust/pollen/dirt accumulates

- Full wash
- ONR or full wash
- Wash and remove bird defecation ASAP. If on glass, just clean the glass.

I do a quick wash and then dry it then use a quick detailer or something just to keep its shine esp there is still a wax. Nothing really big.

Thats what I did yesterday, it was raining for the past 3 days.
