I've never had bird poop on my clothes and my lines are under trees in the
shade -- which is, I think, a good idea, since it is more comfortable
hanging clothes out to dry during the summer in the shade than in full
sunlight, and they dry just as fast in the shade as they do in the sun (at
least this is true in central Oklahoma).

The only real downside to drying in the shade is that you don't get the
natural bleaching of the sun. Great for cloth diapers and whites, not so
good for darks/colors that you actually want to stay colored.
