We report on an observation of the neutron star binary GX 13+1 made with Swift. The windowed timing mode observation started on 2007 October 29 at 00:48:44 (TT) and lasted approximately 7 ksec. We extracted events from the XRT, avoiding the peak of the image to prevent photon pile-up. Using XSPEC, we made spectral fits on the 1.0-10.0 keV band with a model consisting of blackbody and disk blackbody components, modified by absorption.
