Abstract

At the Astronomical Observatory (AOB, Belgrade, Serbia), the observations of blazars by using the 60-cm telescope at Astronomical Station Vidojevica (ASV) were started at the beginning of 2013. During that year, we established a cooperation with the Astronomical Observatory of Torino (Osservatorio Astrofisico di Torino) as an international center for the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) program. Some time after that, we initialized the cooperation with colleagues from Bulgaria and Austria in the WEBT project, and used few Bulgarian telescopes (at the Belogradchik AO and Rozhen Observatory) and the 1.5-m Leopold-Figl one of University of Vienna (Austria). As result, about 20 objects were observed until the end of 2015 (in BVRI filters). Here, we present some of our WEBT observations and results.
