We observed  ZTF21aayokph (AT2021lfaNot found
 
 
) (Yao, Perley, and Ho, GCN Circ. 29938Not found
 
 
)
with the Reionization and Transients Infrared Camera (RATIR) on the 1.5m Harold
Johnson Telescope at the Observatorio Astron��mico Nacional on Sierra San Pedro
M��rtir from 2021/05 5.15 to 2021/05 5.18 UTC, obtaining a total of 0.21 hours
exposure in the g, r, Z, Y, J, and H bands and 0.39 hours exposure in the i
band.

We detect the source reported by Yao, Perley, & Ho (GCN Circ. 29938Not found
 
 
)  In
comparison with the SDSS DR9 and 2MASS catalogs, we obtain:

  g	= 20.85 +/- 0.07
  r	= 20.48 +/- 0.06
  i	= 20.06 +/- 0.03
  Z	= 19.97 +/- 0.07
  Y	= 20.28 +/- 0.16
  J	= 20.16 +/- 0.20
  H	= 18.39 +/- 0.31

These magnitudes are in the AB system and are not corrected for Galactic
extinction in the direction of the source.

Observations are continuing.
