  A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of larger GRB follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of Swift GRB 151205A (Cummings et al., GCN 18657)
with ORI-40 telescope of Khureltogot observatory starting on  Dec., 5 
(UT) 20:49:25, i.e. ~6 hours after the burst trigger.  We do not detect 
any object within enhanced XRT error circle  (Osborne et al., GCN 18658).
Photometry of the field is following

Photometry is based on nearby SDSS stars,
R magnitude deduced from Lupton's transformations.
