We present an analysis of the near-IR properties of galaxies and quasars detected in the mid-IR by the Spitzer Space Telescope. Using optical photometry from the Wide Field Survey and near-IR fluxes from the First Data Release of the UKIDSS (Dye et al. 2006) survey we carry out a preliminary characterization of the surface density of different samples of galaxies and their clustering properties.
