E. Mazaeva (IKI), V. Rumyantsev (CrAO),  A. Pozanenko (IKI),   A. 
Volnova (IKI), report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of the GRB 180809B (Moss  et al., GCN 23105)
with ZTSH 2.6m telescope of CrAO observatory starting on Aug. 9 (UT) 
21:14:58. We took several images in BVRI filters  with exposures of 120 
s. We  detect  the afterglow (e.g., Moss et al., GCN 23105; Lipunov et 
al., GCN 23109; Schweyer et al. GCN 23111; Guidorzi et al., GCN 23112, 
Tiurina et al., GCN 23113).
Preliminary photometry of the afterglow in R- filter is following
