Thanks Jacob & Aaron! This was actually quite a pretty little moth but I didn't have my flashlight with me & my camera struggles to focus in the dark. Hopefully I will find it again & get some better pics.

Yes! A common Noctuid in the cutworms subfamily! http://bugguide.net/node/view/10814

A sturdy little moth with lovely shades. Is this a noctuid species?
