My best guess is Agrotis obliqua, but apparently this genus has some variable species. Any help is appreciated!

Hey Jeremy, nice shot!
Haven't seen one before either, but sure looks like Agrotis obliqua.

I think this looks like Hodges #10660 – Agrotis obliqua which can be seen here. http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/species.php?hodges=10660.

If I am right it will be a VERY nice addition to the guide. Sorry I am not enough of an expert to make the placement. Hopefully someone will see this move and identify it for you.
