A Sixspotted Orbweaver in January??? - Araniella displicata

A Sixspotted Orbweaver in January??? - Araniella displicata
Lincoln, Lancaster County, Nebraska, USA
January 19, 2021
We had a couple of trees cut down, so perhaps we disturbed this little guy's wintering place. We found it up on our patio running around afterwards. It was kind of a warm day (it has been for several day snow) so maybe it just came out anyway? I think it may be something like Araniella displicata but wanted to check with others who probably know these better than I do. :)

Moved from ID Request. This is an odd January sighting, but appears to be accurate on the ID.
