We have observed the field covering the error circle of
GRB GRB091208B (Swift trigger 378559, GCN 10256, C. Pagani et al.)
with the unfiltered CCD camera on the 30-cm telescope
at University of Miyazaki.
The observation was started 09:59:30 UT, about 9.5 min
after the Swift trigger time.
We have compared our data of 30 sec exposures
with the USNO-A2.0 catalog,
There is no new source at the reported position.
