Following the recent report of renewed activity of the neutron star X-ray transient SAX J1747.0-2853 (ATel #637, #638), we have obtained a Swift TOO observation of the field on 2005 October 25. The 1500-sec X-ray Telescope (XRT) observation was obtained in Photon Counting (imaging) mode and detected about 1000 counts from a single point source near the center of the field. The bright source is located at R.A.=17:47:03.0, Decl.=-28:52:56 with an uncertainty of 6 arcsec radius.
