Following the detection of GRB 230606A by Swift (Lien et al. GCNC 33921), we triggered the BOOTES-5/JGT 0.6m robotic telescope at Observatorio Astronomico Nacional in San Pedro Martir (Mexico) to observe the GRB location starting on Jun. 06, 04:27:09 UT (~ 4.2 hrs after trigger). A series of images in clear filter were gathered. No new optical source is detected within the enhanced Swift/XRT error region (Goad et al. GCNC 33924) down to 20.3 mag, which is consistent with the limits reported by UVOT (Breeveld et al. GCNC 33926).
We thank the staff at Observatorio Astronomico Nacional in San Pedro Martir for their excellent support.
