R. Oates, J. C. Tello (IAA-CSIC Granada), J. Gorosabel (IAA-CSIC, UPV-EHU)
and A. J. Castro-Tirado (IAA-CSIC, ISA-UMA), report:

"Following the detection of GRB 140606A by Swift (Stroh et al., GCNC
16353), the 0.6m TELMA robotic telescope at the BOOTES-2 astronomical
station Malaga (Spain), observed the GRB location under non optimal
weather conditions. A coadd of 105 images (60s each, i’-band filter) taken
starting at 20:46 UT and ending at 01:33 UT (i.e. 10 hr post burst)
reveals no optical afterglow down to 18.8 mag."
