We first anchored at the Tombigbee Ox Bow, just before the lock and dam, but the holding was terrible and we kept dragging, so decided to carry on to the next anchorage north of the Lock.

We then went to the Sumter Recreation Area at mile 270, an inlet just off the waterway.

I found a few bird nest boxes, with birds flying in and out, so took a look inside this one.
