Featured Photos 01-03-2024. Photographer Jeremiah Soifer has caught this great blue heron in his lens annually at Christmastime at the Corona Municipal Airport. In a previous photo, when the bird granted Jerry a close-up as it perched on an airplane wing (the irony is not lost), it netted the photographer an honorable mention in the Aviation Week Magazine photo contest. As Jerry approached his old friend this year on Christmas Eve, the great blue took flight south of the hangars. Again, the irony is not lost.
