Thinking about it - the sun is relatively quite bright compared to other targets.
I mostly see mine in bright, high contrast and high magnification (small exit pupil) scenarios... Planetary observing comes to mind too. I actually noticed one of my own observing the sun today - have to double check if it was a feature on the surface or a floater.
I wonder if the moon is bright enough to make them not notable given it dominates the field.
