The larger one with a pink tinge to the plastron looks like a mixed heritage Yellow-bellied Slider protecting what looks like a juvenile Cooter or even a Map turtle as it has a slight keel. Both appear to have similar red markings on their carapace. The pond where they live also has both Red-eared and Yellow-bellied Sliders and a Florida Red-bellied Cooter.
