We report the ongoing NIR flare of BZQ J0530+1331 (PKS 0528+134) a high redshift quasar (z=2.06), also known as CGRaBSJ0530+1331 and identified with the Gamma Ray source 3EG J0530+1323. On March 16th,2011 (JD 2455636.675683), we detected a strong NIR source coincident with the radio position. We determined the flux from this object to correspond to K = 14.058 ± 0.07. That is 1.9 mag brighter than our previous observations on JD2455208.875278, when we determined a flux in K = 15.972 ± 0.11.
