It's possible that is the baby bird poop. Most often the parents will take care of cleaning and can do a sort of technique where they press the stool to the nest wall to keep it "cleaner". I wouldn't disturb the babies until they are actively coming out of the nest and exploring on their own, which you can then use to remove the nest and clean it safely without injury a baby.
