Light from the Sun is reflected back off the surface of the Moon providing us with a small amount of 'moonlight' by means of which animals which do not have dark adapted vision can see a little.

You can see at night when the moon is out because the moon reflects sunlight, providing additional light to illuminate the night sky. This reflected light allows your eyes to perceive objects and surroundings, albeit not as brightly as during the day.
