The Swift/BAT hard X-ray transient monitor reports increased activity in the 15-50 keV band for the black hole candidate Swift J1753.5-0127. Starting on about June 19, 2008 (MJD 54636), the source has been increasing in intensity from an average rate of 0.015 cts/cm2/sec (65 mcrab) in the 15-50 keV energy band to a current daily average level of (0.024 ± 0.003) cts/cm2/sec (105 mcrab). This is the highest rate seen in the BAT monitor since the end of its very high state in September 2005.
