I suspect this may be a Large Yellow Underwing Moth (Noctua pronuba): Check out this page here: http://bugguide.net/node/view/9821

This moth looks like it has beautiful color on its hindwings. Unfortunately, this isn't Plodia interpunctella. If you leave it as unidentified, perhaps someone will be able to give you a correct ID.
