Hello Jeff,
I noticed with the recent updates, there is a folder titled "Attached Sighting - Documents". In the folder I find about 20 photos which don't belong to me. Are they yours's and why are they there? I never added photos in my Birder's Diary. I empty the folder but at each update, they return.

Thanks for posting, Al.
Those approximately 20 photos are demo/example photos that are installed with Birder’s Diary. That is why they come back whenever you install a program update.
You state that you are not attaching your own photos or other documents to your sightings, which would explain why those demo photos are the only files you see in that directory.
The directory Birder’s Diary uses for sighting photos and documents is configurable under:
View | Options | Special tab
Look near the bottom for the Sightings’ Documents Location.
So, nothing is wrong here. Those files are simply part of the Birder’s Diary installation and can be ignored.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding this. Sorry for the confusion.
