Slave server sending notifies to itself?

I have a pretty simple configuration, one master, one slave server.
Configured as follows:

# Master Server
zone "dsl.web-ster.com" {
        type master;
        allow-query { any; };
        allow-update { key ddns; };
        file "dsl.web-ster.com.dns";
};

# Slave Server
zone "dsl.web-ster.com" {
   type slave;
   allow-query { any; };
   masters { 65.182.224.40; };
   file "dsl.web-ster.com.dns";
};

Every time the slave receives a notify it transfers the zone and
everything is fine. It also *SENDS* a notify to itself? The slave
server is 65.182.224.50 and it sends out notifies (I didn't think
slave servers sent notifies) to itself, which it then complains
about not being a master. Is this normal behavior? How do I tell my
slave not to send notifies?
