Pseudemys nelsoni
Red bellied cooters are all over Florida. They stay in groups and bask in the sun together.

I like the back legs..maybe it just got out of water...great shot!
You are rigth MitchRay. I had the species wrong.
It looks to be doing Yoga stretches!
That's not a slider. It appears to be a cooter of some kind, in the genus Pseudemys
