GRB follow up collaboration report:
We observed the field of the Swift GRB 091208B (Pagani et al. GCN 10256)
with the Z-600 telescope of Mt.Terskol observatory in R-filter on Dec. 08
starting at (UT) 15:40. In combined images we detect the optical afterglow
(Ugarte Postigo et al. GCN 10255, Pagani et al. GCN 10256).
Preliminary photometry is based on the USNO-B1.0 reference star
#1069-0020318 assuming R2=17.47:
UT Filter, Exposure, mag. err.
