Butterhead, good. It works well with your magic system. But anything that good isn't accidental. What's the real, what's the magical point of the ritual over the decades? I can think of both positive and sinister explanationss; I don't know which one you want.
"Maybe the cows, somehow, are plotting with the fish."
This takes more work to make work. Specifically, why cows and not pigs, sheep, or goats. Birds are the obvious summer magical animal; they leave in winter, for heaven's sake. Is there a land animal that is 1) given to hang around birds in the summer, and 2) prone to wander across the ice in the winter? Foxes?
