I'm not sure Amanda but it looks like it could be an American Snout (Libytheana carinenta)...there are over 300 species. What do you think?

Dale from Dallas Co. Lep. Society said, "most likely Copper Underwing (Amphipyra pyramidoides) or something related to it . . .."

I decided to let it go in a thicket.
