I'm alive @AaronClausen - remember I'll only make a suggestion if I'm greater than 50.0 % confident I know what it is. You can help me identify this species by uploading and confirming more sightings of it.

2nd thoughts: not sure there are upturned palps. Maybe a hairy head. Too blurred to be sure. Maybe Lindera tessellatella ?

I would rarely make any suggestion at all. I have added a closeup of the head if that helps.

Just let me know if you need better definition of anything in the future. I downsize any photos so it isn't a burden on my internet connection but can generally get focus on a part of the animal and just send that.
