You could help ID those common wildflowers? If you already know what they are?

I was hoping someone would bring this up. When it comes to fungi, I’d rather ask a mushroom forager than a mycologist. Mycologists have the luxury of academic detachment and can debate forever; mushroom foragers’ lives depend on getting it right.

I would love to be able to search identifications I’ve made through a separate life list. I find life list very useful for looking at relationships which is a method i’ve found very useful for spotting misidentifications i’ve made in my observations
@bca_mass I have, in my Dashboard, selected the specific group (and/or geographic area) in which I have expertise, which generates a daily email of all new observations that have been posted, I can ID straight from there or go to the Identify module to select that group to go through them all systematically and quickly. So my point is, I’d say lots of identifiers approach things similarly, but this may steer them away from areas where they aren’t familiar with the biota.
These are the observations that you have IDed for other people. Does this help?

I rarely see that, and very rarely do that myself. It just takes too much time.
