Bats are protected , eat bugs especially those pesky mosquitos that carry diseases - further more they can not take off from the ground. Take a shovel and gently move it to the base of a tree so it can climb high enough to take off. If it is still there tomorrow then call animal control. Do not dump it in the storm drain. That is a very cruel solution.
