Ibirapuera Park is a urban  protected area with 1,584,000 m², located between the central and south of the city of São Paulo, São Paulo State, Brazil. (see Ibirapuera Park)

For its central location and have good recreational facilities for the visitor is a much visited park.

It is also a park with lots of trees both exotic plants, as with native vegetation, lawns, gardens and lakes, which offers an excellent place to practice observation in general, and especially of birds (birdwatching, birding) (see Birds of Ibirapuera Park) and Butterflies (Butterfly watching).

I live near this park and  and  I visit a lot of times to birding and from December 2014 to butterfly watching.

Below follows (alphabetic order) the  186 species recorded in Ibirapuera Park, for us. by Antonio Silveira.
