The SARA 0.9m telescope at Kitt Peak imaged the field of SWIFT
J195509.6+261406 (GRB 070610) on June 12 from 09:11:24 UT until 10:03:24
UT. Our observations consisted of 10 300 sec exposures in the R band.
The source was marginally detected in the exposure beginning at 09:26:55
UT, near our limiting magnitude of 21.16 +/- 0.4 It was not detected in
the other exposures.
