Hello! Can someone help me identify this fern? It was labeled as a staghorn fern when I bought it, but no shield fronds and the leaves are very smooth and bright green. Planta says bird’s nest, but it is not very circular in its pattern. Thank you!

Looks like a birds nest to me. Staghorns are fuzzy.
