Using a time sequence of filtergrams in the magnetically sensitive λ6103A CaI line (with circular polarization measurements), obtained with the SPO Vacuum Tower Telescope and the universal filter we mapped the line of sight velocity and the longitudinal magnetic field in three quiet solar regions. After elimination of the effect of the 5-minute photospheric oscillations we found in two regions of concentrated magnetic field no association with the line of sight velocity, while the third region was associated with small (<300 m/s) downflows.
