J. S. Bloom (UCB) reports:
"We observed the field of GRB051022 (GCN 4131; GCN 4137) with the
PAIRITEL 1.3m starting at 2005-10-23 04:00:34 UTC. In a total
exposure of 1836 seconds we detect in JHKs the three sources (A,B:
Castro-Tirado et al. GCN 4143; C: Cool GCN 4149) near the XRT
position (GCN 4141). We note that only source B is consistent with
the current XRT position. An image has been posted to:

position marked as a white circle)
Further observations are planned."
