Anyone else see lighter shades on Google maps?

At time around my neighborhood etc, I notice the Google maps has some shady’er “blocks” on the map.

I can’t figure out why this happens. Anyone else notice this?

Pic for reference.

It’s normal composite of satellite pics from google. Most likely, some parts of the map are newer than others, and the lighting (sunshine) was not exactly the same

btw - that map you referenced is exactly same on a desktop
