Cropping
Please notice the instructions on every image submission form requesting that you crop all images close to "just the bug" before submitting them.

 
Sorry,
I thought I cropped it enough.

 
"just the bug"
"just the bug" on all images, compare to this one I did for you. The bug should go side-to-side on the longest side of the image.

Looks like a Mournful Duskywing
Erynnis tristis, but there are others that are similar, so I'd wait for expert ID.
