A collapsible, portable, lightweight enclosure or blind designed to hide and obscure a hunter, photographer, or individual observing wildlife while seated in a circular, dome shaped enclosure. It has a fully rotatable (360 degrees) seat/base and has retractable arms extending upwards from the base and rising vertically to support a series of arches that create a domed shape enclosure and support a retractable fabric canopy and side walls. The dome or canopy is releasable and can retract or fall out of the way in order to allow a clear and unobstructed view of the sky above, and also allows the user to stand for better positioning for shooting (gun or camera) or making a field observation. The cylindrical shape and domed configuration allows a constancy of shape while being rotated, which is much less noticeable to birds and animals, and reduces the chance of frightening them away. The retractable canopy/dome can also serve as an umbrella. Spring steel or light weight aluminum (tent) tubes are used as arches for support for the dome cover and can retract and collapse together to allow the entire unit to be stored in a small backpack for portability and ease of set up.
