Why doesn't this work?

find . -name "05_scripts" -type d -exec mv -f {}/'*.aep\ Logs' {}/.LogFiles \;

Returns this failure:
mv: rename ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/*.aep\ Logs to ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/.LogFiles/*.aep\ Logs: No such file or directory

I don't know why it's trying to use the "/*.aep\ Logs" in the target directory.

If it key in the command generated manually it works fine.
mv -f ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/*.aep\ Logs ./019_0120_WS_WH_gate_insideTEST/05_scripts/.LogFiles/
Works perfectly.
