Size: 2.3 mm
Okay, I know it's not a click beetle. It actually bears antennal resemblance to some of the anobaeids.

This one apparently bounced off the storm door glass and landed on the concrete steps. It was a day in the 60s (temperature!) and the beetles were out.

Throscid?
Perhaps it is a beetle in the family Throscidae? Great shots!

Looks like it. Many thanks.
I'll move them in a few days to give others a chance to weigh in here, assuming an authoritative voice doesn't nix your suggestion.
