A. N. Morgan, J. S. Bloom, and S. B. Cenko (UC Berkeley) report:
We observed the field of GRB 100305A (Troja et al., GCN 10470) with
the 1.3m PAIRITEL located at Mt. Hopkins, Arizona. Observations began
at 2010-03-05 09h29m30s UT, ~0.4 hours after the Swift trigger. �In
initial mosaics (effective exposure time of ~795.6 seconds) taken
simultaneously in the J, H, and Ks filters, we do not detect any
sources within the XRT error circle.
The preliminary photometry yields:

Observations are ongoing. �All magnitudes given in the Vega system,
calibrated to 2MASS. �No correction for Galactic extinction has been
made to the above reported values.
