Found on the trail, I put it back near the red oak I'm guessing was it's host plant. Hopefully it will still pupate and survive the winter :)

Observed from 45 minutes after sunset to an hour after sunset visiting Rose of Sharon flowers. One picture shows it landed on the plant while the other shows it hovering over the plant.

I heard the woodpecker, so I looked into my binoculars and couldn't believe my eyes! I immediately tried to snap a good shot, but the two above are the best I could get. I followed it around for 10 minutes trying to get a shot, but it was challenging with it's camouflage and constant movement. I was stoked to see this! It was pecking and flying around! Rare sighting for my area!

This is the second year in a row I have recorded this species coming to lights at Sudden Regional Forest Tract. There is a nice wetland here with lots of Highbush Blueberry, which I believe may be the foodplant.

Found crawling on snow.
I've poked through genus on Bugguide, Kaston, Dondale et al. and I am still stumped. Nothing seems to match the eye arrangement, chelicerae size/shape, carapace length/pattern, abdomen length/shape/pattern.
I think I can rule out these species for the following reasons:
T. caudata (has an abdominal tail that is distinctive, per Kaston book)
T. elongata (chelicerae same length as carapace in females; lateral eyes closer to each other than to medials)
T. extensa (chelicerae larger than in mine; eye arrangement different)
T. guatemalensis (lateral eyes are closer to each other than to medials)
T. laboriosa (lower medial eyes closer together than are upper medial eyes; carapace lines diverging; abdomen shorter/rounder)
T. nitens (chelicerae longer than carapace; not in PA)
T. pallescens (chelicerae larger; abdomen shape wrong)
T. straminea (because lateral eyes are farther apart than are medial eyes; ventral and dorsal sides of abdomen separated by straight line; shape of abdomen wrong; chelicerae larger)
T. vermiform (eyes don’t match per illustration in Kaston
T. versicolor (because lateral eyes closer to each other than to medial eyes; not in PA)
T. viridis (always green)
