The photometric observations reported here indicate the existence of a new feature behaving like airglow, which is referred to as a 'daylight flash'. This phenomenon was recorded on three days at both the H-alpha and H-beta Fraunhofer lines with different strengths. The cores of these lines were filled in while the near continua were unaffected. Possible mechanisms of this phenomenon are briefly examined, and the need for further observations in order to improve the understanding of this effect is pointed out.
