Noctua pronuba
Beautiful pattern liked carved wood. Browns, greys, even though it flew I never saw the full pattern on the wings.
thanks to Jacob for the ID!
I am unhappy to learn that this beautiful moth was introduced to North America. The first recorded sighting of it in BC was in 2002. I would love to see it with the wings unfolded. Here is the Wiki version of this:

Thanks, J. I see it now. Wonderful! and thanks for your ID on this one.
Lovely, Kathleen! Do you see my comment regarding field guides in your area?
