Definitely a Steller's Jay, the question is, how did it get to Europe. This
bird lives only on the west coast of North America, not a likely vagrant that
far east! It is an extremely rare bird anywhere in the eastern half of NA.Gary

1.07 minutes into this video on Trovants (a peculiar form of sandstone
boulders found in Rumania), there is an appearance of a bird I can't
identify. I would say it definitely isn't a European bird and looks more
like a S American sub-oscine.

A screen-capture is here:

But you might get more detail by watching the video.
