This is Pixie, a Northern Blossom Bat (Macroglossus minimus). They use their specialized brush-like tongue to lap nectar and pollen from flowers.

Adorable. But if I turn him right side up, he looks like a he's gonna flash people in the park.

so that's where cartoon vampires' bat form come from

That’s like that house elf from an evil family in the Hogwarts universe!
