Expert Response

Species level identification of moths can be a challenge. This one likely is a Noctuidae but could also be an Erebidae or Geometridae.

If you're up for a challenge, you can try working through the key to moths of Michigan. I've already filtered by Noctuids, but this gives you 424 possibilities - https://www.discoverlife.org/mp/20q?guide=Moth&cl=US/MI/Cheyboygan/University_Michigan_Biological_Station
