    Abstract: A device adapted to be secured to the trunk of a tree, the device serving to catch the fruit from the trees and protect the fruit from animals, the device including a mesh dome having a rounded closed top and an open bottom. The open bottom defines a circumference, and a slit defines an opening to the mesh dome. The slit is perpendicular to the circumference of the open bottom. The device further includes a circular mesh dish having an outer circumference and an inner centrally located aperture. The outer circumference of the mesh dish matches the circumference of the open bottom of the mesh dome. Furthermore, means for securing are discretely positioned about the outer circumference of the mesh dish. These means for securing function to secure the outer circumference of the mesh dish to the circumference of the open bottom of the mesh dome. A foam ring is positioned within the centrally located aperture of the circular nylon mesh dish. The foam ring is adapted to be secured about the trunk of a tree.
