Elderly relative living abroad by herself, is having most of the fruit eaten

Since she is too old now to get a net over the tree, is there anything else
she might usefully be able to do to stop the birds?

Buy a shotgun. Take up hawking. Buy an agricultural bird scarer.
I don't recommend any of them in such a case.

You don't say what sort of fruit,
Cherrys are the chief Tree fruit taken in the UK.
