Pall Jakobsson (U. Hertfordshire), Johan P.U. Fynbo (DARK, NBI),

Pasi Hakala (Tuorla Observatory) and Patricia Schady (MSSL) report:

Using ALFOSC on the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) we have
obtained 5*600 s R-band imaging of the GRB 060714 field
(Krimm et al., GCN 5311) on July 20.911 (6.28 days after
the burst). Inside the revised XRT error circle (Perri et al.,
GCN 5321), we find no evidence for any sources. The limiting
magnitude of our observations is approximately R > 25.0 (2 sigma).
