We present new photometric observations of 15 symbiotic stars covering their last orbital cycle ( s ) from 2003.9 to 2007.2 . We obtained our data by both classical photoelectric and CCD photometry . Main results are : EG And brightened by \sim 0.3 mag in U from 2003 . A \sim 0.5 mag deep primary minimum developed in the U light curve ( LC ) at the end of 2006 . Z And continues its recent activity that began during the 2000 autumn . A new small outburst started in summer of 2004 with the peak U -magnitude of \sim 9.2 . During the spring of 2006 the star entered a massive outburst . It reached its historical maximum at U \sim 8.0 in 2006 July . AE Ara erupted in 2006 February with \Delta m _ { vis } \sim 1.2 mag . BF Cyg entered a new active stage in 2006 August . A brightness maximum ( U \sim 9.4 ) was measured during 2006 September . CH Cyg persists in a quiescent phase . During 2006 June – December a \sim 2 mag decline in all colours was measured . CI Cyg started a new active phase during 2006 May – June . After 31 years it erupted by about 2 mag in U . TX CVn maintains a bright stage with U \sim 10.5 from 2003 . AG Dra entered a new major outburst in 2006 June . It reached its maximum at U \sim 8.0 in 2006 September . AR Pav persists at a low level of the activity . AG Peg ’ s LC profile varies markedly during different orbital cycles . AX Per continues its quiescent phase .
