That's exciting!

So far out of range of existing photos on BG.

Widespread

They're widespread, but generally uncommon, so the photos on Bugguide appear to be just a few scattered records. I have yet to see one here in Pennsylvania (they're here somewhere though...), but people I know in New Jersey have been seeing them :)
