Whale

To do whale in Baby Sign Language, your non-dominant hand is positioned horizontally in front of your body, as if it is the surface of the water. With your dominant hand hold the middle three fingers of your strong hand out (making the ASL sign for 'W'), and move the 'W' over and under the water, as if it were a whale bobbing in and out of the water.

That is an orca, not a whale. Although orcas are commonly known as ‘killer whales’, this is a misnomer and they are more closely related to dolphins.
