The high frequency peaked BL Lac object 1ES 2344+514, at a redshift z=0.044, was observed in August and September 2005, using the MAGIC Imaging Air Cherenkov telescope. The source was first detected at energies above 350GeV by the Whipple collaboration in a state of high activity. We confirm the object as a source of VHE gamma rays, extending the measured energy range to lower energies. First results of the analysis will be shown.
