Using the first surface detector data of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we present the results of a blind search for overdensities in the cosmic ray flux with respect to isotropic expectations. We consider two energy bands: 1 EeV < E < 5 EeV and E>5 EeV at two angular scales: 5 degrees and 15 degrees. We also report the results of seraches for excesses in target directions already defined in a set of prescriptions presented at the ICRC in 2003. At the moment, both analyses give results that are compatible with isotropy.
