Yes. The blue water takes in large amounts of water and krill into it's mouth and pushes out the water through filters, also called baleen, in it's mouth, leaving the krill, or plankton behind, which the whale then swallows. It's easier for the whale to swallow the krill, if it does not have to swallow a lot of water with it.
