"The BOOTES-IR 0.6m telescope, located at IAA-CSIC Observatorio de
Sierra Nevada in Granada (Spain), observed the SWIFT error box for
GRB 060825 (Sato et al. GCNC 5471) starting at 03:26 UT in R-band.
We detect an object on the edge of the XRT error box at coordinates
R.A.= 01:12:29.58, Dec. = +55:47:43.8 (J2000) with estimated
uncertanity of 0.7 arcsec which might be present at the DSS2
