Noctua question

The moth is a Noctua pronuba (L., 1758).  Very common in North Eastern
Wisconsin and should be appearing in a week at lights.  One interesting note
I have about this moth arriving at lights, is that the majority of specimens
I saw arrived at the light in the early morning, most likely after 3 AM.  I
am not sure if this is coincidence, or if the moth is actually a just before
sunrise flyer.
