Why is lawn mower battery losing its charge when sitting over night?

Something is on, as in headlights or ignition, or the battery has a dead cell. If the battery is over 2 years old it is more than likely the battery itself that is the problem. Disconnect the battery positive cable and fully charge the battery. Let it sit overnight and if it goes dead, replace the battery. If not, find out what is running it down.

How does a lawnmower charge a battery?
I suppose you're referring to a riding mower. As you didn't specify the age, make, etc, this will be an educated guess. If the mower is kept in a controlled environment, such as a garage with heat during the winter months, the battery should hold charge for years. If it is kept in a shed outside, then you'll probably need to charge the mower's battery every spring. All you need is a battery charger with jumper cables. Make sure it is capable of charging you're mower's battery. The battery is charged by a generator or magneto. It is located under the flywheel.
