I have been guessing, and I think correctly, that most people do not realize the Moon is visible in morning daylight. It is easiest to spot in the days/week after a Full Moon. Each day, the Moon will “wane,” its reflection shrinking, as it moves closer to towards the Sun (from our vantage on Earth).
A sparkling clear late Spring day offered little reason to not get the camera out for some easy lunar photography.
