We observed the field of Swift/BAT-GUANO localization (Tohuvavohu et 
al.,  GCN 31572) of GRB 220210A (Fermi GBM team, GCN 31568) with 
AZT-33IK telescope of Mondy observatory, AS-32 telescope of Abastumani 
observatory, and Zeiss-2000 telescope in R-filter. Within localization 
area (Tohuvavohu et al.,  GCN 31572) we do not detect evident candidate 
in comparison with SDSS DR12 catalogue. The object reported by BOOTES 
team (Carrasco-Garcia et al., GCN 31573) is clearly visible in all of 
our observations and do not show significant variability  with R= 20.17 
+/- 0.14 (0.54116 d),  R= 20.05 +/- 0.13 (0.72701 d), and R=20.14 +/- 
0.13 (0.77438 d). This highly reddened object visible in DDS-2 Infrared 
Survey (Carrasco-Garcia et al., GCN 31574) is also presented in SDSS 
DR12 as a star-like very red object with r=21.187.

Preliminary photometry of the field is following
