Name changes

As of January 2021, The Auk is named Ornithology and The Condor is named Ornithological Applications. I have made the necessary changes in content and moved the articles, but a few things might bear improvement:

Peculiarly, there is the statement of intention to change the names [1] from 2020, and there is the undeniable fait accompli of changed names from 2021 onwards [2][3] - but I couldn't find a dated statement about the change itself taking place; no press release or similar. That's some unexpected coyness on part of the publisher of two 100+ year-old journals. If someone can dig up this up, it should be added as a reference.
It looks as if there is as yet no updated official journal abbreviation for the new titles. At least the usual abbreviation databases don't carry any. Not sure if that takes a while to happen, or if they will just stick to "Auk" and "Condor"? If this is updated, please adjust infobox.
Should the box images replaced with current covers? I'd say no - the used images are already historical in that they show subtitles no longer in use ("A Magazin of Western Ornithology"), so might as well leave it at that.
