E. Mazaeva (IKI),  E. Chornaya (UAFO, ISON), A. Matkin (UAFO), I. 
Molotov (KIAM), A. Pozanenko (IKI) report on behalf of  larger GRB 
follow-up collaboration:

We observed the field of GRB 160804A  (Marshall et al., GCN 19761)  with 
SANTEL-650 (0.65m)  telescope  of UAFO/ISON-Ussuriysk observatory. We 
obtained several unfiltered images  starting on  August 04 (UT) 
12:03:56.  We clearly detected  optical source reported by Breeveld et 
al. (GCN 19764), Tyurina et al. (GCN 19768), Malesani et al. (GCN 
19770), Moskvitin et al. (GCN 19771), Xu et al. (GCN #19773) and Bolmer 
et al. (GCN 19774). Preliminary photometry of a combined image is following
