Dear jeffrimko.
Nice spotting and welcome to PN.
I have given you a species suggestion, but I am not experienced with the fauna of Pennsylvania and I am not a biologist. Therefore it is good if you wait for confirmations from other members/rangers on this site, or if you wish do some research on your own, before you add the common and Scientific name of this beetle :)

Have a great day
