$ find . -name *.log

Read why this fix works

The shell already opened your mail.

find . -type f -name '*.log'

Quote '*.log' so Bash passes the pattern unchanged to find. GNU find can then apply it throughout the directory tree. -type f restricts matches to regular files, avoiding directories whose names happen to end in .log.
