We obtained a 30 minute exposure of the central region of M82, using the Near InfraRed Imager and Spectrometer (NIRI) together with the ALTAIR adaptive optics system on the Gemini North telescope. The observation was taken on June 11 2009 (54993.26 UT), using the K band filter and the f/14 camera (0.05 arcsec / pixel, over a 51 x 51 arcsec field of view). The field of view covers two recent radio transients: the radio supernova SN 2008iz (CBET #1803) and the un-named transient described in ATEL #2073 (henceforth the "MERLIN transient").
