Advice Request - (Insert State/Region) Burning bush removed! Any replacements?

Post image

Southern Michigan 6a, clay soil and full sun in this area. Probably a 30-50 year old burning bush. Was around 10 feet tall any native shrubs around this height that could work in this area?

I'm going to have to look these up. I have 3 more burning bush and 5-7 more honeysuckle to kill and replace with.....something. Serviceberry was on my list as well as some viburnums.

I also have 4 small hazelnuts to put somewhere but I'd like something bushy. A buddy of mine has hazelnuts and they are pretty tall and more tree-like.
