Orange-patched smoky moth
Thank you, that's it exactly. Obviously, I took the pic of it on concrete, so it doesn't always stay in the forest or fields. This one was right in town at our city bus transit center. I've just never seen one before and was curious about it.

Thanks again for your answer.
