  The beam normal spin asymmetry for the elastic $eN$ scattering is studied in
the leading logarithm approximation. We derive the expression for the
asymmetry, which is valid for any scattering angles. The result is compared
with the results of other authors, obtained for the forward kinematics. We also
calculate the numerical values of the asymmetry at intermediate energy and show
that they are consistent with existing experimental data.
