I realized that I may have made a mistake in an identification I made a week or two ago and I would like to be able to search for it but haven’t been able to figure out how. I also commented on the observation so if there is a way to search for comments that would be helpful too.
you might find something here: https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/how-to-use-inaturalists-search-urls-wiki/63
Yes, for example all your IDs of warblers: https://www.inaturalist.org/identifications?user_id=lbislander&taxon_id=71349
You can find and search your comments here, but unfortunately it excludes those that were attached to an ID:
https://inaturalist.org/comments?mine=true
There are several related feature requests to add search filters to that identification page in order to make searching easier as well as to find observations that have comments. For now you have to manually edit the URL.

- https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/search-for-observations-with-comments/1594
- https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/search-comments-by-user-id/1009
- https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/include-identification-comments-in-total-of-comments-comment-search-etc/1563
A more general solution is to create a bookmark for the observations page filtered by your identifications:
https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?ident_user_id=lbislander&subview=table
You can then filter by a particular species using the search box at the top of the page. To refine things even further, use the button at top right to add more filters.
thanks for all the helpful suggestions. Problem solved.
