 Logarithmic radius of planar Brownian motion

Started at radius one, planar Brownian motion avoids the origin, and its logarithmic radius is a continuous local martingale because the logarithmic potential is harmonic away from zero. It is a strict local martingale: at deterministic $t>0$, the angular average of a logarithmic potential gives $\mathbb{E}\log |B_t|={\int }_1^{\infty }{e}^{-r^2/(2t)}dr/r>0$, whereas the initial value is zero. Absolute integrability follows from integrability of $r|\log r|$ near zero and the Gaussian tail. Its positive expectation does not contradict nonnegative-local-martingale bounds, since this process takes both signs.
