The earlier waning phases following the Last Half Moon are also sometimes visible in the early afternoon before the Moon sets in the West although these become increasingly difficult to see with the bright Sun closing in on the Moon in the final phases before a New Moon.
The Moon is typically more visible in the day when it is nearly full and so closer to the opposite horizon and further from the Sun.
