You are right, picking at your nose can cause it to bleed. But, it is most likely caused by dried nasal passages or some sort of disruption in the blood vessels in the nose.
During this time of year, allergies could be a source. But, often there is no particular reason. Some people have more nose bleeds then others.
If it happens again, you may want to see a doctor. He will determine whether you may need to have the vessels cauterized (sealed off by burning)--very quick, painless procedure.
