Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I went with podster's idea about the plastic grocery bags because we've got so many of them in a kitchen cabinet. That turned out easy to do and it works - the birds are scared of the bags and I haven't lost a single bean sprout.

Now that I'm picking my earlier plantings of beans every couple of days, I've remembered how much I dislike picking bush beans - and I wonder why I've planted another big row of them! Next year, I think I'll plant all pole beans, the picking is a lot easier.
