Moisture is probably collecting in the exhaust overnight. It honestly doesn't look like anything to worry about to me.
FWIW I've found that the coolant level fluctuates by up to an inch in ours (half-inch above or below the seam on the reservoir), so I wouldn't be worried just because it appears to be a half inch low and you're checking it religiously every day. If the coolant level gets really low - like 2 inches below the seam in the reservoir - then I'd start to worry.
