This is the only relevant bit out of your tcpdump output -- it usually
helps if you filter out as much of the irrelevant stuff that you can[*].

Anyhow, as you can see, your RPiB+ is logging *from* an arbitrary
high-numbered port.  This time it happens to be using 59735 but that
would probably change with each restart of syslogd.  Basically use the
'-a 192.168.0.0/16:*' form in this case.

[*] ie. 'tcpdump port syslog' should work as the packets are being sent
to the syslog port on your server.
