See the documentation 
http://ftp.isc.org/www/bind/arm95/Bv9ARM.ch06.html

If there is no logging statement, the logging configuration will be:

logging {
     category default { default_syslog; default_debug; };
     category unmatched { null; };
};

...

There are four predefined channels that are used for named's default 
logging as follows. ...
channel default_syslog {
    syslog daemon;                      // send to syslog's daemon
                                        // facility
    severity info;                      // only send priority info
                                        // and higher
};
...
